I would probably go ported with subs up and port back.

don't know about what to use. but how hard is it to take care of one. i've been on the womans case about getting one since they look cool. but what does it take to keep one alive. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

cool...about how much do bearded dragons cost? what do they eat? crickets?

titebond is a wood glue i believe. It has chemicals in it that bond wood, not glass or w/e you are using. Liquid nails considering the fact that it is just an adhesive.

Been wondering the same thing about the cost. I've wanted one for a while, just never actaully comitted myself. They're pretty awesome IMO

I knew a guy who breeded them too.

i got a lemon fire dragon from him

they are a cool pet.

Just looked at what you plan on making. Isn't melamine just another type of pressed wood, or am I way off? I can't see liquid nails being a problem. It won't run like the wood glue i've used (titebond 1, never used the others), and it's not like your lizard is pounding on the walls like a sub would. Hell, I used liquid nails for my sub box before I knew better.

Good luck. that guy's awesome, he deserves a good home

i know i could of asked there , but this forum moves ALOT quicker , lol. btw , i paid $50 for mine , but people told me i could easily get $250 for him. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif he is a sandfire directly from the breeder.

its pressed particle board with a plastic type coating. i would be using the adheasive for the wood , not for the plexi.
