    Re: Yet another project

    Well from the looks of it , it can double as a bomb shelter or a tornado proof room. Nice job! I would go with the natural look on that one. Seeing as I am throwing my 2 cents in. I would go with a clear polyurathane. Use two or three coats sanding in between. The polyurathanes dry to a plastic like material and will not weep out toxins after it cures.

    Re: Yet another project

    Thanks.

    It's the same material I've used on all the enclosures I have. It's 18mm pine and it's available in the DIY sections in many stores. Even though it's pine, it's virtually odorless.

    By the way, you just described how I've made the previous enclosures. Natural look, clear polyurethane and two or three coatings (two on the outside, three on the inside).

    One hole left to cut, and that's the ventilation hole. I'm probably going to have to make it in the back, since the enclosure is probably going to be one of a pair.

    Well, Stefan, now if I ever get to visit Finland, I not only have to convince you to give me that vagrans I love so much, but the nice vivarium you've made as well!

    Re: Yet another project

    If you look close enough, it looks like a 5-year old built it, in my opinion. I didn't have the proper tools, basically just a jigsaw, a rechargeable drill and a square.

    Well, you must know how to use a square because it looks pretty good on my monitor.
