My stuff arrived from ECF today. I'd ordered the ferplast network attachment and (what I thought was) a crittertrail 10inch tube. Turns out they sent me the 3 pack of tubes, one of the "10inch tubes" is actually 2 medium ones and a small one combined (which I had wanted but they were sold out of!
). And it's turned out better because... well, I'll show you.
These are the two cages I'm connecting - the pink Fantasia and the barred yellow one (dunno what brand it is, got it in p@h)(and the tiny table it has to fit onto
):
This is where I want to connect it from. The middle hole is right on the edge of the top of the yellow cage's bars, and the bottom hole is right on the edge of the yellow cage's base, so has to be top hole:
This made me thankful they had sent me so many tubes, so that I could extend it right over the top. I have a problem here, as the CT tubes are just SLIGHTLY loose in the Fantasia hole, so I'm thinking I'll just super glue the pink ring (seen above) onto it. Also here you can see the ferplast network connector (FNC):
And this is where I will be connecting the tubes to the yellow cage, using the FNC:
I need help on how to cut the bars though. I have a pair of plyers, that have a cutter-bit in the middle, so I HOPE it'll be able to cut through the bars (if not I'll have to ask around for one from someone). BUT how do I mark the bars so I know where to cut? :/ I'm so scared of mucking this up :/
EDIT: Okay, so I tried to use the cutty-bit in our needle-nose pliers and they won't cut the bars. My OH says his father has bolt-cutters, which would probably work. Any suggestions what else would cut these bars?
