Hello,
So I've been researching cages and 40g tanks and I am just not liking them all that much. I thought maybe I would try and build one for a beardie (I don't have one yet )
So the dimensions I was thinking are, 4 feet wide by 2 feet deep by 18 inches tall.
I was thinking, wood sides except for the front which will be sliding glass, and then the top I was thinking of a screen (but not sure)
Does this sound like something that will work?
I have MDF board in my garage, but I don't really want to use that because of toxins. I was thinking Plywood from home depot / lowes.
Does the top need to be solid? or Can a screen work?
I have a jigsaw that I can use to cut out spots for lights and stuff. I just wanted to make it as easy as possible, and thought maybe the screen would be okay.
Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, JB
