Interesting choice to build it there. Good luck with the rest of the build.

An update! Not a visible one for you guys, but a good one nonetheless!!
After paying 526$ For glass that was delivered in the wrong size, not properly sanded (And a week later than promised). They tried to make us pay for delivery, and would only refund 100,- for their own mistake. Luckily i kept record of every email send back and forth, and i could show them exactly what i ordered. When after ages of debating i threatened to get legal aid to get my money back, they reluctantly gave me all my money back if i gave back the glass.. No problem as long as they pick it up themselves, and they did! I am never ordering there again!

Today i found a different company, called them to order the glass, and i only had to pay 220$ and thats including the guiding profiles.

Also, i ordered today and i can pick it up tomorrow, and the people were very nice to me. So i'm happy

So sad we aren't home this weekend, can't wait to continue!! but i'll be patient.. Now we can continue soon, once the glass goes in we can start making real progress!!

poomwah · 03-27-14, 06:12 PM

does that mean we get more pics soon??

**Tsubaki** · 03-28-14, 09:30 AM

I wish i had time to work on it this week, but very busy.. We were supposed to be much further ahead already. But without glass we couldn't do much, and now that the glass is here we have other priorities for a while.

Dem boys are out getting the wood for the fronts, can't wait now

!!
Sadly i have to go to work soon, so i cant help out. Still very excited to be continuing.
Looking for a spot to order heating cables,

I can't wait to see the finished product, not sure what happened to your last collection but I'm going to make a small prediction here, over time it will become very large again, as reptile enthusiasts we just can't help but collect more

**Tsubaki** · 04-19-14, 10:27 AM

I lost my snakes in a house fire starting in the neighbors attic, trying not to think about it too much..

I already got it figured out which (kinds) of snakes i'm getting, and building enclosures for them.. But i might end up squeezing a few more here n there. The next viv build is across the room from this stack, and it will be a 10*8ish foot viv for my mainland retic

**Tsubaki** · 04-21-14, 04:14 AM

Half of the Glass,

And i just finished cutting the wood fronts of the viv's up to size, ready for putting them on there!

New(ish) to the forum and just found this thread. Super excited to see how this turns out for you. It really sounds like you're putting a lot of work into this. Hope it all comes together for ya.

*edit*
By newish I mean I started coming on the forum regularly. Apparently my join date is a year ago. Oh how time flies..

**Tsubaki** · 04-22-14, 05:58 AM

Thanks! and yea you've been here longer than me actually haha.

**Tsubaki** · 04-26-14, 03:10 PM

A lot of work has been done today, by next week all the woodwork should be finished! Then just adding lights, heat and sealing the wood !
