Bummer, that walkthrough on dreamwidth.org was a good one. A bit dated now though. You might want to check youtube for some video walkthroughs. Generally you want the enclosure to be 4x2x2' or larger. I would put ventilation low on the cool side and high on the warm side to allow a nice current to move through it. You could set up a sliding door on front, or a drop down door with hinges on the bottom and a lock on top. Using melamine is cheap and easy to clean but it's very heavy so I would use a decent plywood that is untreated. Then coat it with something to seal it up like paint or polyurethane. A screw socket on one side for the basking light should do the trick. You could hook that up to a lamp dimmer so you can easily adjust the output. I would use a 22'' T5 UVB light and set that on the top on the same side as the basking light. You could set it along the front or back or even at a diagonal to provide a good UVB spread over the basking area.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
