well it all depends on how eleborate you want to get and how handy you are. almost all the cages i build i use 3/4" plywood or melamane and hold it all together by screws. you could also frame it out with 2x2s. plan it out on paper so you can work out all the details. for doors you could use tracks and glass to make sliding doors or hinges and more wood for a hinged door. make sure to consider heating and light as well as ventilation. most likely you will want to seal the enclosure so sillicone would be what you want. thats pretty much it for a basic box type cage. take a look at book cases and cabinets to get a better understanding of how they go together.
