Where did you get the safe sealant from? And safe paint?
I managed to buy that exact sealant off of Amazon as well. It was around £6. Just search aquarium sealant.

Looks quite easy to clean out. Scoop out the old substrate and use a vacuum cleaner to get the last little bits. The pee corner may would need wiping too.

If your hamster pees in a potty you just empty the potty and refill. This way you won't have to change all the substrate as often.

Hello!
I really love the cage - LOVE IT.. it kinda looks like the cage i wanted to buy!
So i was thinking, why don't i just make it!
You instructions makes it easy to 'copy', thank you so much
Was just wondering, did you paint the inside also? I've seen some people painting the ikea billy shelves, and some just keeping the ikea surface as it is.
Both seems to be working perfetly, so i really don't know if i should do it or not!
.. and i'm just guessing that the billy shelves is made out of the same material as the linnmon table tops, so i might be wrong thinking that you don't need to paint ontop of the original paint

Is the glass front you used 108x50?

There's a few different size options so unsure which one to use!
