Next time, I'll make something with thicker acrylic. The 1/16" was a bit of a pain to work with because it isn't that stiff. But I learned a lot in the project, and my next one will be better.
I do like how my fastening idea worked out. There are no holes drilled for ventilation, just a gap between the sides and the top, which is fastened with a number of those little neodymium magnets. They're pretty strong. I'm quite sure the Ts can't push the lids open. I don't think I'd try this with something dangerous, but I like the clean look and I only have two 2.5-3" G. pulchripes. The cube is 12"w x 12"d x 6"h, divided into two halves.
