Default Gonna be doing even more to Crystas cage :D

Tomorrow I'm ordering 1000 lolly sticks, 100 2ft dowels and a hot glue gun so next week I'm gonna get creative and customize Crystas home

Any ideas of what I can do?

You could make a level? a bridge?

Where did you get the dowels from? x

I'm thinking levels all around the tank

got the dowels from rapid electronics but they charge £8 odd shipping unless you do a huge order, which luckily my OH is doing so added them and the lolly sticks onto his order

the hamster homes flickr you linked to in your thread started inspiring me so thought I'd like to make loads of things hehe

100 2ft dowels..you could make something 200 foot long!!

or you know..something normal? D:

Could make a little fence to enclose sand or another type of substrate for digging? (I know you have the tank..but it'd be something like...variety or something..D:
I'm awful at DIY
I think the levels all around sound good

Do you mean 2cm dowels? I'm not a DIY person so I don't know how big 2ft is tbh. lol

You can get lots of ideas from the German cages!

That sounds cool! I think you mean 2 cm because 2 ft is almost half the height of me D: You could make some platforms and ladders like the ones all the people on the german forums make ^_^

nope they're 600mm, almost 2ft

Rapid Electronics - Dowel

yeah think I'll do platforms and if I have enough leftover maybe section off a bit of the tank for sand

Wow. I've only ever seen like 10mm ones. Are you planning to cut them down or use them like that?
