Ok, so I'm going ahead with the bin cage plan. Woo!
The best box I've found so far is the
Really Useful Box (64L)
Only trouble is dims, you seem to lose a lot from outside to inside - is this still ok? It's a tad smaller than typical dwarf size recommendations
The next one up (width wise) is huge, but I do like how smooth the inside of these bins are (nothing to chew) and the snapping handles to secure the lid are great. The boxes themselves feel VERY sturdy.
External dimensions: 710 x 440 x 310
Internal dimensions: 605 x 370 x 280
I'll be getting either a Russian or a Robo, so is this big enough for them?
(Also if it is,
Staples are doing 2 for £20 rather than £17 each so if anyone wants to go halves with me.... :P )
I've been researching substrate for a while now and think
Fitch is the way to go. There seem to be a couple of reasonably local places near to me that sell it so I'll check them out. Failing that delivery isn't killer for how much you are getting.
As for wheels, what are your recommendations? I know everyone has their own preferences but I’d like to hear them all so I can make decision (that’s what I did with substrate
) Any issues with the wheel sticking in bins due to deep substrate? Or should I just go for a flying saucer straight away?
Once I’ve decided on a suitable bin (and size) I’ll pop down to B&Q and sort some mesh and fixings. Really looking forward to modding the bin
Thanks in advance for your help.
