I wanted to know since I'm making this next enclosure out of cabinet grade ply. Can I leave the inside bare or is it recommended to seal the surface. If it must be sealed, what's safe to use on the inside to keep the heat lamps from creating harmful fumes?
Bare or seal?
I am also planning an enclosure out of construction grade ply and 4 X 4's...
A rustic look which I believe is fitting for a snakes home. The glass is going to be dual pane with lg gauge chicken wire sandwiched in between.

Something different.
