Default tortoise enclosure progress

had a couple of people asking how my build is going so thought id just pop of pic on here.

progress so far, not there just yet but plodding along, pic is a tad dark but meh



will take a few more as i progress but weather and the fact im doing it myself means progress is not at lightning speed

WOW That is fan-bloomin-tastic. I know you're no where near finished but I can just imagine.

Really look forward to updates on this
