Re: My custom cage pics

Oh, you think Creative is my BP's name. Actually, Kyle said something about he wanted to be creative and then I being an artsy person replied to that by saying that creative is fun. Maybe it was the capitalization.. sometimes I capitalize random letters, not sure why.

Wolfus is my bp's name (started out as a joke and it just stuck) he went for eleven and a half months without eating.

Re: My custom cage pics

Ok so another update and I have made some significant improvements to this little project since last time I updated. For it is really starting to take shape and I have gotten the water working and everything on except for the top which still needs to be painted with the grout and I have to put on the legs. There weren't going to be any legs, but I got a new waterbed and it was considerably larger than my last bed and the door to the cage hits the end of the bed. Due to the way my TV is and the size of the bed and the cage I really can't move anything around without taking a really long time to do so. I am hoping to get the legs on this weekend and the top grouted for sure and then I will just have to set the substrate and let it run for a couple days to make sure the temps stay stable and everything works ok. Then I will be able to move my BRB into her new home. This project has now surpassed a year in construction and almost 500 dollars or more!!!!!! I didn't even come close to realizing how many resources this would take. Great sense of accomplishment now though and even my GF is really excited for it and I think she is more excited than I am now. LOL. Thats saying something because she told me when i started it was a bad idea.

Anyways I digress and now time for some pictures...

Re: My custom cage pics

Sorry it is a mess i cant get the door all the way open so i cant really clean it out and the plexiglass is really dirty. Also the plexiglass is cracked from being in my garage waiting to be put on so that is going to have to be replaced soon

Re: My custom cage pics

waterfall is just the same as all the other pieces. I used styrofoam insulation board to shape it then filled it in with GREAT STUFF (expanding foam insulator) then i painted it with the grout and sealed it with a water based sealer.

Re: My custom cage pics

I found out that hot glue works great to hold the foam to itself and other things!!!!! the glue can't be too hot though cuz it will melt through the foam and not stick.

Re: My custom cage pics

Ok it is finally done!!! It has been done for a couple months but here are a couple pics now. The plants have grown in a little more now and are more full but you get the basic idea.
