To answer your other question, Reed. I done recommend using screws, while it can be done, 1/4" would be very east to crack if you over tighten the screws. Good luck with the project.

ok so ive made many drafts on paper and this seems the best
the sides top and bottom will be glued with silicon, the front glass thing will be hinged on by 8 hinges on the right side (to make it stackable) then on the left side i will have 2 locks to keep the glass thing closed, im using plexiglass for the garters enclosure because it can be drilled into, but for the ackies im guessing i should use glass so it doesn't get scratched from the lizards claws?
and how do you suggest putting the heat light in? can the cord be inside the cage?
do you think i could use some left over strips and glue them to raise the cage an inch so the cord can come out?
