This is exactly why Chompers new room will not only be sealed, but will also have sheets of aluminum secured to the floor.

Go to any scrap yard, they will sell you aluminum for the price of scrap.

I got several sheets of Aluminum from a public bathroom wall once for really cheap just by asking.

Scrapped out road signs are perfect, and some of them are really big too.

Some highway sign panels are 4 foot by 8 foot!! same dimensions as a sheet of plywood.

From a sheet metal supply house, this panel would be hundreds of dollars to buy, a scrap road sign about $20

Well unfortunately I fall into the dumb category more oft then not.....but occasionally I have these moments that make me look like I know what I am doing..... then I open my mouth and that myth is busted to pieces.....

Oh yeah the cage looks good. When is the little beastie. Coming home?
