[natsirtremraf]

Hey everyone! I've been working on this for a couple weeks now, so this thread will get you up to speed.

I'm building a permanent home for my 2 Central American Boas.

48"x24"x18"(LxWxH)
3/4" Oak Plywood
Expresso colored stain
Spar Varnish to seal wood
2 Adjustable vents on the back (Control over ventilation and humidity)
Caulked edges/corners with silicon
Linoleum on bottom
3" subtrate dam
1"x2" trim around the top and front sides
Door: Plexiglass framed in 1"x2" trim hinged downward on the substrate dam.

80 Watt Radiant Heat Panel
LED strip light mounted behind the top trim
Thermostat(s)

Planning on making 2 and stacking them, possibly 3-4 high.

Clamping, gluing, and screwing the first side.



Primary shell completed.


Front trim and ventilation holes cut.
