i have to say for a woman (not putting us down ) i am a real natural when it comes to d.i.y . so when i decided that i wanted to do my own viv i went for something special. Well for me anyway.. its not amazing by any means but it is the centre of my living room , my colony are extreamly happy and wanted to share it with you. i adore natural wood , especially oak and plan to have all solid wood floors and old oak beams in the living room. so the thought behind my viv was old and oak. after a few months of searching and landing on my feet i found this solid oak 8ft high unit for a bargin price of £80.00. i saw the same one months later for over a grand. When i first did it only the top was done then i bought two more and they are now on the bottom then the whole viv will be opened up. made my fake rock thanks to this site. i did three levels 2 basking sites and two arcadia strips. natural rocks and drift wood from the beach for climbing . the whole thing stands 8ft high and 5ft wide. for me its perfect...i would recommend anyone to do it.
