Put up my background

Moved it into the house today.......getting there!

Started installing the sides

Put 2 coats of stain on the outside of the enclosure. Also caulked the edges on the bottom.

Put concrete down on bottom and made a slope to the drain hole.....laid an acrylic sheet down on it and glued it to the concrete. Installed the drain today

Will do.....I'm still working on the project, though it's getting close to being done. I will probably spend a week at least on testing temps and humidity levels.

I used satin black Rustoleum

Made some progress on the project today. I took out the glass sides and replaced with plexiglass. I left 13" at the bottom on both sides and will put screen for a hybrid setup. I taped everything off and then painted the entire interior with waterproof black paint. I also cut screen for the...

Sounds like a plan.....thanks

No.......the left side is glass and will be painted over.....the front is glass. Top will be screen. Right side to be determined.

Yes, that's what I was trying to ask.....I probably worded it wrong. Leaving 8" on the bottom of the right side and then the entire top open.......you think that will that give me enough ventilation?

I had a ventilation question.....I was planning on sealing the left side, but I'm not sure about the right side......some/all of it will need to be screened for ventilation. I'm trying to strike a good balance between enough ventilation and not damaging the floor below the right side with the...

OK, the project is back on........a little bit of rearranging in the Living Room should do it........and I got the go-ahead from She Who Must Be Obeyed 😁

I work in a computer department and the climate is tightly controlled, so work actually is not a bad place as far as the environment goes.......but I agree that I have more control over it at home. I think we may have found a way around this for home, so hopefully the project can...

Yeah, who needs a bed in the bedroom anyway? :D:D:D

Yeah, I'm not too happy about this.....was really looking forward to getting into the wonderful world of chameleons........but, I should have checked first, so that's on me..... Unless I can figure out a way to rearrange furniture in our master bedroom........hmmmmmm

Well, this project just came to a screeching grinding halt. Found out today that I can't have personal pets at work, and this is where it was going to go.......don't really have any place here at the house.....guess I should have checked that earlier.....my bad. Thanks for the advice and...

Thanks, working on it! Next comes caulking all the seams/corners, then a couple of layers of waterproofing, then more waterproofing

Have had a few health issues lately but managed to get a little bit done today......cut the top out and sanded edges, cut the drain hole, and set the bottom edges This right side will have screen on it for ventilation I am working on this in my garage.....this is looking up thru the top......

Thanks.....I started to buy a DragonStrand or Tamura but thought this would be an interesting project..........I'm pretty sure I'll be getting a Panther.....I like the Jackson's also
