Ha! You don't have to include disclaimers like that, I know you well enough.

How about an anvil? Ha! Ha!
I've never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the drawer, no how. Me elevator don't quite make it all the way to the top. You know, kinda like, "Dumber than a box of rocks." Ha!
The reason I'm not using a stock tank for this one is because I didn't feel that an 8ft oval one would provide enough of a burrowing area for two savs. Granted, this cage isn't gonna last these two very long anyway, once the male grows a lil' more. For the money, I figure if I can get 10 - 15 yrs out of this thing it would be worthwhile.
I did consider a metal frame but got hung up on what to use for sidepanels and considering watertight fastening systems. My metal experience is as a machinist, not as a fabricator. I don't know how to weld my arm like you do. Ha! Ha! (couldn't resist that one)
I remember not too long ago you were talking about still having the first cage you made, what is it made out of? Give me some good ideas, with something (material) I can work with and I might quickly turn this thing into a couple of snake cages.
Take care!
