Montys new Enclosure

As I need Montys old enclosure for my upcomming Blackthroat I decided to make my BP a new enclosure.

First I would like to say that I could not have achieved this without the knowledge gained and assistance form this site and its members. So, below is my first of many enclosures.

Also note that in my appreation, I have 70 pictures illustrating step-by-step procedures of the entire process (including my F. ups) which I will add text to and provide a pdf file for Jeff to put somewhere for future referance.

Please, as usual constructive criticism is welcome, with the understanding that I am in the process of designing a unique hide system to accomodate the most descriminating Ball (LOL)
and getting a theromastat from radio shack.

Once again Thank you all!
Sincerly
Brian

Well, I can't wait for the "How To"... after researching, I think I might end up building my GTP enclosure by myself to save a bit of money (and shipping)... should be interesting, I'm definitely going to need all the help I can get... LOL

I think someone could make a lot of money selling "assemble it yourself" enclosure kits. You know like that furniture they sell at KMart? Looks great Asphyxia!
