I wanted to try this and am glad I did, It went together fairly quick and with few tools needed.It is 12 ft x 6 ft x 1 ft tall, The bottom piece's are laced to the side piece's using .032 aircraft grade stainless steel wire.Everything else is screwed together. On the top inside edges there are 1 1/2 in x 1 1/2 strips of wood to give it some strength, the cap (one piece sitting on right side) is aluminum flashing. It is light enough that if it needed to be moved 2 people could move it with little effort.Another good thing is that the ground doesn't need to be perfectly level.I still have some work to do on the inside setup to do, but she will be in it soon.

Looks VERY good. The lip should be sufficient to keep her from digging out. I have found that mine really only dig in the corners of the enclosure.
