Hey, i'm planning on making a large two level platform for my beardie. it would be about 40x12x15 inch (100x30x40 cm) so it's quite a project. What i'm wondering is, what material would be best suited for this kind of job. I've seen people suggest using either styrofoam or polystyrene.
I would like to know about your personal experience with making DIY platforms, and what best to use.
I would make it out of wood, I did something like this but smaller and it worked good. use something like maple because it looks good (in my opinion) and its safe for bearded dragons
Melamine is a good material for making things for beardys. That's what I made my bearded dragons cage out of. You can buy like a 4x8 foot sheet of 3/4 inch melamine at Home Depot for bigger projects. It's also easy to clean and reflects light.
