Just give it some time, I'm sure people will see your post Sometimes it can take 1/2 a day or more before someone who has an answer to your question logs online - not too long a wait If I'm not mistaken, I think you can pick up the PVC pipe at Home Depot or Lowes - if I'm wrong, someone please correct me! ~Nan

Ideas are limited only by your imagination. For the PVC cage...you should not make one unless your ig is at least 2 1/2 feet stl. The corners do not meet up flush because of the way the elbows curve. PVC can be purchased at any home improvement store or plumbing supply place. Lowe's and Home Depot are generally cheaper. album4055.fotopic.net/p852249.htmlNote the bottom right hand corner closest to you. The gap is big enough for a baby of 2 feet to easily get through. Talking with experience there... I used a large 2 1/2" diameter pipe...to big. Next time I will use a 1 1/2-1 3/4". The thing is definitely sturdy, but kind of heavy. The panels are made individually so they can be taken apart and rebuilt easily held together by bolts. This is a good outdoor cage, but for inside I really suggest something a little more enclosed for inside...ok...a lot more enclosed. Some prefer completely enclosed because it helps hold the temps and humidity more stable. Some prefer the open front for good ventilation...this is me. However...during winter I do want to make the Plexiglas panels to keep humidity in. Mine drops to about 30% in winter...so a fully enclosed enclosure with side panel ventilation, top and bottom, is a good way to go.
