I'm presuming that front glass (plexiglass) slides up and out? That would give excellent access for cleaning etc.

Nice work, Marc. It's 36" long, but is it 16" deep and 24" tall or visa versa?

Re: Mr. Pink's Home

Unfortunately James it does not . I was going to make the front hinged but my wife (still uneasy with snakes) didn't feel secure about it. I made the top hinged and being 6ft. with a long reach cleaning is bearable for me!!!

Yes it is Cazador, the funny thing is once i got the snake in there i realized i could have made it alot shorter, but it still looks cool and I always say (from my past mt. bike "career") go BIG or go home!LOL
