I think the little ones will love it there! And then they’ll turn into huge dinosaurs and you’ll need something bigger [emoji85][emoji23]
Awesome! Im going to build an outdoor pen for our kids (torts, not humans. Well, maybe them too....) next spring. Im still worn out from the closed chamber build, and so is my wallet!
I am planning on building a hydraulic lift lid for protection but it will need to be very light weight due to the size.. haven’t decided exactly how I’m going to construct it yet..
That looks great!!! Post a pic when you put your torts out to play!TaaDaaaaaaa!!!!
Since you're still undecided on the lid, I'll share what we ended up doing. We used PVC pipe and went up & over. This is square so we crossed them. I want to go longer next year, so then we'll probably need to create at least 3-4 separate arches and connect them across the top (& possibly at the bottom too). It was a super easy and cheap build.
The mesh is nylon, not metal, but it is TOUGH. This was easiest with the dome shape. if you went with the arch/tunnel shape, metal mesh would be super easy to drape over and affix.
