    Very envious of your carpentry skills. I like the Texas barn idea for the rat snake.

    Do you have a walk through of that really big beautiful enclosure in the back corner??

      Hello, yes it's the "Epic Royal Python Enclosure" I have 2 build videos and 2 updates on the channel

    Hello, thank you for the video. I have a question is there a certain type of plywood you use? Do you use a certain type of heat bulb or do you just use heat mats? Also what brand are those uvb strips and where can I find them. Thank you

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, so I have loads of videos covering my equipment setups specific to the snake species but I always use halogen lamps combined with flat rocks to create basking spots. I use a mix of reptile systems and arcadia t5 uvb kits, both are available in all reptile shops or online and the plywood is 18mm hardwood faced plywood.

    Hey I know I’m late but I love this concept did you use anything to keep the wood from slowly rotting from the moisture or is it fine? Also is there anyway I can get the cuts? Or dimensions

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, the second part of this video series covers how I seal the vivariums against moisture. I can email you a cut list and drawing if you send me an email to reptileshednorwich@gmail.com

    Looks sweet bud! Using these as a base for mine being built over Christmas! Is that just normal wood filler you used for the edges of the ply?

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ah excellent! Yeah it's just standard interior/exterior filler, it'll be stained and varnished over anyway 👍

    @busta87 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hi mate just wondering for the bottom vivs top plinth how do you secure the middle of it? I assume you're using some L shaped brackets or something since the bottom plinth for the top viv is in the way.

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, yes I use little brackets, I tried doing a crude pocket hole screw thing but without a jig it's pretty tough.

    Where do you get your timber mate seems cheaper for me to buy pre made vivs at the minute

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wickes with trade discount. 7 sheets of ply makes this plus two 4ft vivariums. The wood set me back £240 delivered 👍

    How much did the whole thing cost

    • @norwichreptileshed
      @norwichreptileshed  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      £240 for the wood, £72 for the glass and £20 for the tracks. The rest is reptile equipment and lighting. I also have enough off cuts to build two 4x2x2 vivariums
