So my Sambava, Mojo, Is about 7m old now and Im ready to start building him his adult house. Anyway, the time and the weather is right and I have the whole design figured out but the only thing I cant seem to find is what is the best way to attach the screen to the wood frame? I was thinking sandwiching it between 2 pieces of wood but then should I also use sealant (silicone) after it is together? weatherstripping? also, anybody have any specific preferances on wood type, and why? My dad is an amazing carpenter and will be helping me, so im not too worried about the basic structure of the cage, just want to make sure its not only a sweet piece of furniture but also a cham paradise
cage will be: 2'x3'x4' wood frame with screen top, sides and door, back wall will be faux rock wall w/ built in planters and bottom will be linoleum. it will also stand on a base which will house my supplies, drainage bucket and my misting system. The top will also have a taller boarder to go around and hide the lights and mister (with a door for easy access) Ive seen a few people attach larger branches into their rock wall, I think it looks really cool but has anybody had any problems with that? Im afraid that if I do that and something goes wrong my whole cage would be screwed. Any and all input is greatly appreciated as always, thx guys!
