How would I connect the two storage boxes?

Storage boxes are easily connected by cutting large holes(but not the whole sides)into both containers on the sides that face each other.This would be extremely easy to do with the same exact tool that makes it easy to cut holes into lids and mesh them when making bin cages,which is a wood burning knife.These are cheap tools,considering you can get one for $13 at Walmart which will last more than just the bin project and is a great investment for bin cage making,DIY toy making,and more.To keep the bins attached,you just use zip ties to zip tie the bins together.It's very similar to meshing a bin lid,but this is on the side and doesn't use mesh!
On the note of a 40 gallon tank,that can potentially cost you $80 if you buy the tank and lid in store.It will also be extremely heavy,and the ventilation won't be anywhere near as good as a DIY project could be.The same issues that come with tanks apply to the Detolf,and while the Detolf would be ideal for a dwarf hamster it is still far more limited in placement which unlike alternative options cannot be changed.
