Hey there! This thread is going to be my new build thread which will be in the works going forward. I'd love to hear thoughts, reccommendations, and welcome and relevant links/resources on the topic. It's been awhile since I've really done a deep dive on the forum and need to catch up on...

The clean up crew is getting pretty huge.

She's grown so much!

Hey there, throwing this onto a separate thread as it could help people interested in this topic. So yesterday I received a wifi enabled camera and set it up inside of my enclosure. It has motion detecting, and I can select the time range for it to detect, and then it sends mobile...
