Take that, flip it so the top is cut open and facing towards you with screening, and over the "side" put metal screening for the heat lamp. So it basically looks like it fell over. lol

Got it- thanks.
Yeah, I've debated about building cages that way in the past myself. Never tried it though.

Another excellent idea (which I noticed in Sid's photo comp entry) would be to secure the edges of the lid/front with bulldog clips.

That could work also.

[Zephyr]

Oooooh you tip it sideways... right? And then look in thru the lid which is now the front?

Yep!
I'll get pics after things calm down around here. :P

[Loren]

yeah, take the pic in his link, shrink the window down and put it next to his description of the cage, and then it all makes sense.

Kyle, I know one thing I have learned in building racks is that for some designs, specific tub make and model is critical. For one rack I built recently, I searched for the right tub for months. Seemed as every tub had something not quite good enough about it, often it was a crappy fitting lid.

I just tried out the clips; they work great!
I don't think a baby could fit between there now. (Thankfully.)
Yeah, I was kinda ticking off my dad with my choiceness at Target. lol

Okay, here it is, with clips and ex-escapee added. (You can't really tell the clips are there. :P )

[drache]

nice little pad there
glad it's secure now
what exactly are bulldog clips?
and is the screen stitched, stapled, or glued on?

Great idea.
I'm so glad you found him.
