my viv build!
 at the begining, id only tack'ed one side so it wasnt very study.  at the end(for today), i wasnt too happy that B&Q i think naffed my cutting up! so theres a big gap at one end that goes from 1 inch - 2 inch down the whole depth of the viv (2ft  )apart from that i think ive done VERY well considering im only 13 and did this all by myself  all thats left to come now is the flip-down viv door ( which is guna be hinged) ill need to nail the bar in ( to stop the substrate falling out when i open the door) and the yacht varnish + using the silicone sealent round the edges. does anybody know any superglue i could use that wont harm my reps? thanks p.s this will be aired out for a few days

whats gona go in it? i think any superglue should be fine as long as you varnish the wood afterwards. btw, i used hinged doors for my gecko viv, but i think if the doors are hinged up then it will be hard to clean if the door keeps falling on you. mine are sideways hinged and it was easy to fit them, just a suggestion. also are you sure the gap is cutting error. b&q cut my wood well, but i had a problem on my first viv build with the corners not being right angles so the wood didnt fit well, and it made the doors stick when they shut, but i measured the corner nangles for my next viv and had no problems

my female tegu is going in it until she gets too big for it, then my female common boa is going it
and i think for the gap, ive got some spare wood - ive marked on were i need to get it cut to make it fit, im gonna put that on, nail it in then put some glue inbetween the 2 pieces so its stays in place. and im proud of myself lol! considering i was below target in Product design, think a 6x2x2 is better than a bloody bridge we had to make ahah
