You should post how big the pieces you cut were! Looks awesome and I actually want to make a similar cage this weekend.

Also what did you use to paint/seal the pipe?

Sorta wish I would have build an enclosure like this instead of the screen one I am building. Would have been 100 times easier. Oh well, back to work on my enclosure.

I have use hardware cloth vinyl coated, attached with 6" nylon cable ties. at front and back i use pet screen polyester coated insect screen.
i did 4'.4'. 2' ,but since the PVC comes in 10's and the hard ware screen is 5' x 2', it will be wise to go in size 5' x 5' x 2'
i will try to do the measures will post later.
