I don't know if I can answer all of your questions, but here's a desciption of the cage I built:
4' wide, 2' deep, 2' tall Plywood with plexiglass doors (front) and sides
I use a water bed heater UNDER the tank. they're nice because they already come with a thermostat, and they actually need a lot of weight to work properly (they're supposed to heat water beds, y'know)
For my (one) light, I just cut out a hole in the size of it, so it'll fit nice and snug, they stapled some hardware cloth (wire mesh stuff) over the hole on the inside of the tank. For my size tank, I use a 100w bulb, or they can't feel the heat 2' below the bulb.
I hope that answered at least a few of your questions. I'm not a pro at building my own cages.
