Wanting to make my own raindome

[GlassEyez]

Here's an idea, exchange numbers and have a chat (lol) I'm sure we can resolve this without countless casualties!

Lol guys at work say that if we talkin to another tradesman and not working. Get his number n call him later

Starting to feel lazy about the whole thing honestly so just might opt out for the raindome. I just really want something that will provide water while im at work instead of him only getting misted once or twice 2hrs b4 his lights shut off. I really liked the way the raindome makes that natural feel rain from top of the cage. Now to figure out a good way to drain excess water from the bottom of cage

LOL! DIY projects always seem great.. Till it comes time to do it. Then the stores sound better

You will love the raindome. I only have DIY raindomes but they are pretty much awesome. I found my animals started to drink instantly instead of taking awhile to "accept" the misting. Urates were much whiter as well.

As for drainage.. What do you currently have your cage on? I have used a few different types of shelves. I just bout one of those big metal storage shelves and like that the best. I've also used plastic shelving and wood. The basic idea is, drill a hole in the middle of your cage bottom. Then line it up with a much bigger whole in the plastic or wood shelf (the metal ones are all slitted so its much easier) and then have a bin directly underneath your hole and bam.. you've got drainage! You can also chalk your cage bottom edges to make sure all the water goes exactly where you want it.

I built a PVC stand for my 2x2x4' enclosure.

My drainage system is big pot saucer. I drilled holes on the bottom of my enclosures white pvc base so the water drips down into the saucer. Then, I have a washing machine tray to capture the water that roll off the sides of the mesh. Water + wood is a nightmare! So i've been sticking with plastic. I also hot glued some plastic on the bottom so the water doesn't splash out the sides and get all over my table. The water that goes into the washing machine tray gets soaked up by a rag/sponge. It came with an adapter so i could connect a hose for easy drainage, i'm just too lazy to set it up

Here's a few pics of my set up, not the best but it gets the job done.
