oh i will i have been working out what all i will need to complete the project in a tasteful and practical fashion a friend online sent me some pics of one he built using chinese reeds and it looked pretty good so im modding his design to allow my bamboo it will have a wooden top framing and bottom with 2 half doors on the bottom for all the gadgets ie; lighting and vent controls and timers and a small feeder tank i have been trying to find 2" vents that i can use that can house 1." fans for air exchange i have also found a site that retails polymers for the front "window" panel so i won't have to use heavy and dangerous glass in it only in the top and that pane will be somewhat thick tempered glass that i came across i will post pics as soon as it is done and stocked with whatever i choose to house in it im thinking some nice evil lil geckos or moving my honduran milk snake into it since she seems to like a more vertical cage
