That looks great. Can't wait to see the next one you build when they outgrow that one in a couple of months. :)

Looks really nice! How did you hang the background? Backgrounds and I don't get along! Yours looks so smooth and straight.

That really great! My next project is to make my enclosure nice looking, right now it's just a huge plastic box sitting on top of another huge plastic box :D

Hi,

Thanks guys!

@momof4: For the wall paper/background, I just used 3m double adhesive tapes.

@NudistApple : Those are some kinds of vents for some air circulation.. on the top part on the left and bottom part on the right... I saw like it on some vivariums...

I hope the glass sliding door will be installed later today, so my torts can enjoy their new home :D

Thanks
Charles

Please please please show us the details in the sliding door installation. I'm designing a big triple decker tortoise "cabinet" right now and the door design is really holding me up. I'm pretty much building something like yours only three high. Need to see what kind of "track" you are using. Any info will help here. Pics are great too. :)
