Hello everyone,
I was hoping someone could kindly help me in making ideas to what i can do for my enclosure for my two tortoises. I'm moving house soon and I own two Russian tortoises! I've been finding it very difficult to find a decent sized tortoise table anywhere!
Currently I've got the following table:

And the other is in a temporary Viv, which i'm planning to change hopefully! I want to pimp out my enclosures and make them look smarter, to do this i want to put both my tortoises in tables and i want them to stack ontop of each other.
Kind of like this:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DOUBLE-T...hash=item28548dcf4d:m:mCFf0r8BLusE4Xs5mxaJh2A
The problem is, I've had no one in my life to show me how things are done nore give me DIY experience so I'm a newbie and learning! What kind of wood, screws and type of support to put two tables on top of each other to make it safe? I have some tools a drill ect.. I've done small wood work before but nothing major.
I want pointing into a direction so i know what wood to buy for the legs, what screws i need and i also want to paint them a different color, again I've had little experience in this area :')
I've also looked at the following as another possible route i could go:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Indoor-R...hash=item1ca67f545e:m:mIZ7d9vYHobNqyIhGp7_6Bw
I've read online some people use Guinea pig cages to house their tortoises in, this would solve my problem of stacking but is this big enough for a Russian tortoise?
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks,
-Shaun
