Hey Chris,

thanks for the reply. The heating is giving me fits at the moment. The cages were already built when I got them, as far as the melamine goes: they were in use at a grocery store as a bakery rack. That's gonna make it hard to route any groves in the bottoms, least of which I don't have a router as of yet, ha ha.

I started this with a "budget buildup" in mind, but it's snowballed since then. The only good part was the free melamine boxes (48 x 24 x 12 with a partition already in the middle to make each box have two 48 x 12 x 12 cages in each). The lights were a big hit at around $13 each, and I could have gotten by without them, but I like to see my Hondurans when they are out.

I can not wait to get these done, I'm tired of the tanks and clips on the screen tops, it's a hassle every time I want to feed or water or play with my babies.

Should have glass in them and be wired with lights this week, and potentially get the heat sorted out by or over the weekend. Too much work family = not enough time to play in the garage.
