Newly built Cage!

Hey guys!
Here's the cage that I've been building... I think it turned out pretty good!! Well, tell me what you think! I'm going to add a humidifier connection later... but, until then, I'll just keep misting with Spock's spray bottle!

thanks! we haven't put him in there YET... *sigh*... I have to wait until my paycheck on the 15th to get some foliage for the cage. The dimensions are pretty big... it's approx. 5'5"x30"x32"... I was thinking about getting a couple ficus, a hibiscus, and a pothos for some good vineage. I wanted it to be pretty dense in there, so he has a lot of stuff to crawl on!

Very nice! I can't wait to see it all done up.
What is the frame? Conduit?

Thanks again guys/gals! The cage's frame was constructed with 1/2" pvc piping with the "three inlet" pvc elbows to make the corners... I can walk you guys through every step or make some plans if you want me to. I spent about 60 bucks on everything.. which isn't bad considering the size. I'll get some plants on my payday, or my g/f on her payday will get some plants.

yeah, it sort of does, huh? all pvc... the reason I chose pvc over wood is that it's lighter and it doesn't get all saturated when the cage is being misted (ie no algae/mold buildup...)
