Yep title says it all. I'm thinking about making my own cage. But wondering if anyone could give me any tips. My Chams are male 2-3 months, female 4-5 months and figured I would start planning now. Anyways my idea is to (hopefully) make a light weight cage divided for both of them. What type of wood should I use? What type of screen should I use? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

sorry\ for\ slashes\ broken\ computer
light\ weight\ and\ cheap\ poplar\ is\ good.\ make\ sure\ to\ use\ a\ water\ proof\ agent\ like\ polerathan(idk\ spelling)
as\ for\ the\ screen\ depends\ on\ what\ type\ of\ cham\ you\ have\ i\ use\ the\ metal\ screen\ that\ is\ found\ on\ older\ window\ screens\ i\ paid\ $10\ at\ lowes\ for\ like\ 10ft\ of\ it\ thats\ 36"\ wide.\
also\ i\ used\ small\ strips\ of\ wood\ to\ secure\ it\ to\ the\ cage\ along\ with\ liquid\ nail\ for\ on\ the\ doors.\ but\ its\ up\ to\ you\ just\ try\ to\ cover sharp\ edges.\ you\ can\ see\ my\ cage\ on\ http://thezillaman.webs.com\ in\ the\ gallery\ if\ it\ helps\ i\ couldnt\ attach\ them\
