Caught this in the Free section of my local Craigslist. Wish I had a use for it. lol
How cool would this be to convert into an enclosure?

It would be a lot of work to make it hold up to moisture. Another challenge would be constant condensation on the glass.
Agreed, but those are the kind of challenges I like! lol
Proceed then! Show us how it turns out!

View from one side, access from the other side. It will take alot of space.
You have a lot of surface area with the shelving if you leave it. Might be neat to house a small species colony. Maybe a speckled cape tortoise if you can find them or Hermann's. That really would make a cool Ackie enclosure if it's deep enough.
I'm thinking it might be possible to hinge the front glass. I dunno. Will have to see. Have to figure out how heavy the thing is too. Might need several ppl to lift it into my truck. Regardless, would make a cool project.
Definitely a thought. There's a brand new reptile shop that opened up down the street from me. Maybe I can fix it up and sell it to them. Their setups are...well....less than desirable for my taste. They had a few ackies there.You have a lot of surface area with the shelving if you leave it. Might be neat to house a small species colony.

Perhaps the front is already hinged. It looks a lot like a case in the cheese shop I frequent. They can lift up the domed front.
