I told you guys I have been experimenting...well My wife's work was throwing out a bunch of these old high speed dot matrix printer boxes and i thought hey wait a minute, i could make cages and incubators out of these....lol. So i took apart one stripped the insulation off, replaced the cardboard bottom with real wood, resurfaced everything in wood grain contact paper, glued it back together with gorilla glue, sealed all the seams with GE Silicone II, put in a 18'' under cabinet light, put in a ceramic socket (into which I placed a Pearlco IR heat emitter which will be replaced with a heat panel when it gets here) placed in a tree branch, added a couple of latches and ta da cage....when it all cures i will put several inches of cypress mulch on the bottom and add snake....these things are great they have a built in fan for circulation are melamine coated and everything...lol. 35 inches long 24 inches deep and 19 inches tall the only bad thing is they can only go on top of something due to the slope and the way they open...but not a problem i plan to put two 36" x 24" x 24" s under a few of these...what do you guys think?
Later...
