Big enclosure... but is it big enough!

I know that the recommended enclosure size is 2'x2'x4'. And right now Ringo's enclosure is 27"x33"x48". I'm already doing the plans for his new enclosure. I know I know I just finished the other one. I'm just crazy like that and this one is going outside. Or maybe used for newcomers. Anyways I'm thinking about doing a big enclosure just for Ringo and another just for Star.

So this is what I was thinking and wanted to share with everyone. I'm thinking about going 24"x48"x60". I want it to be 48" long because My light fixture is 46" long. Not going into full details until i work out all the links.

On Starrs enclosure I'm thinking about going 40" long but still haven't thought about it yet.

In my last enclosure post https://www.chameleonforums.com/again-enclosure-design-101954/ I mentioned doing a background. Today I was thinking that instead of using actual branches I was thinking about using dowels. Would I waterproof them using the same stuff I would use to waterproof the rest of the enclosure?

Sorry I know that I'm annoying with all these questions and ideals. Just trying to get everything right since this will be the last enclosure. But ill stop posting....

i like the size you are considering.
i have my veiled in 2x2x4 but feel he should eventually have more space.
i didn't treat my dowels so am interested in that answer.
