the first modified rubbermaid i built had an attatched front, i used a high strength adhesive (non-toxic after dry), but ill be honest, i dont like the whole attached plexi idea, over time (2 or 3 months) the front on mine actually warped and had to be taken out. so i just redesigned what i was doing. now, i bolt the lid on, and use heavy duty mirror hangers to hold the glass on, with a quick twist the front comes off, and youve got access to the snake. the only tricky parts are making sure you use enough mirror hangers, and positioning them so that those on the top and sides can twist easily, but that they arent loose. you want the bottom ones to be fixed, and with more hangers on the bottom, as they are the supports. this is actually only the 3rd, maybe 4th round of designs ive been thru, im actually focusing more on adult caging with all of the snakes ive got on their way to needing bigger cages. any questions please feel free to email me. ----- Jaymz
