Alrighty...
For young adult and adult iguanas, an IDEAL cage size would be 7 or more feet tall, 7 or more feet long, and 5 or more feet deep.
The minimum is 6 tall, 6 long, and 4 deep.
Of course, the bigger the better.
Yes you can build one yourself using creativity, common sense, and safety in mind. Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart, etc are all great places to get materials. ZooMed is great for heating and lighting.
Read books on iguanas, check out terrarium books at the bookstores.
You sound like a newbie, so check out Melissa Kaplan's Iguana Care website (google it).
It's a lot of info and a great crash-course in iguana care.
They're not easy pets, and are a long term commitment.
