But you may not want a glass tank.
I may have missed the point but why not just do the standard Linmon cage from the video? Did you want it bigger than that? The Germans use the Ikea Pax melamine wardrobes for their diy cages

When I initially visited Ikea with the thought of building a diy linnmon, they didn't stock the hemnes glass top and I thought the linnmon boards themselves were a bit chunky and not made of very sturdy material.
I then found a glass shelf there with different dimensions which inspired me to create an alternative.
I wanted to repurpose the chipboard just to recycle waste (it was an old wardrobe) and keep costs down.
BUT.. I have just checked Ikea's website and they are stocking the hemnes glass once again!
Perhaps I should opt for that!
I have wasted about £30 on redundant items now (and i'm a fool for overexcitedly opening things before I need them and throwing away receipts!!
)
