You need to put a block of wood underneath it and let the drill do its job. Meaning, don't put much pressure on the drill, it will get there. I used a smaller drill bit first and then a larger one to make the hole big enough for the bolt.

I've painted the back shelf red and the front shelf green.
I think this is going to be a colourful.

The Silent Runner is out of stock, grrr.

Just checked the sugarglider shop and they had 1 Silent Runner in stock today. I ordered the cage attachment as well. The Orbital wheel is so wide and takes up a lot of space. The Plaza looked big when empty but shrunk when i started playing around with things.

Excellent diy skills.

For future reference you can get metal cable ties (amazon). They can still be cut through when you dont want them any more.

I use them for my rabbit runs/dividers.

It's more a matter of getting there first. One day they have 0 but the next day they could have 1 or 2. I don't know how their supply chain works.

Thanks. Never heard of metal cable ties but that's interesting and will look them up. Thank you.
