Hello gang,
I just want to share my process of building an outdoor enclosure for my adult Hermanns.
I current live in a townhouse so I have small terrace on my back. I like to take my torts outside when the weather is permits. Nothing better than cooking on the BBQ, drinking beer and chilling with my torts. The friends and my old lady are sometimes welcome to join
Today I decided to construct a new outdoor home.
I'm making the enclosure out of 1x6 Spruce untreated fence board. It is 5 ft x 6 ft in total size 16 inches high. It's simple design which is basically a raised planter box.
here is photo journal of the enclosure
Just cheap spruce fence board ($30.92), box of deck screws ($8.00) and 8 deck corner brackets ($9.00)
I create 4 panels that can be easily disassembled
I connected two of the panels
All 4 panels connected. I left the bottom open because I have tiled terrace. I plan to line the bottom with plastic.
Tomorrow, I hope to construct the top that will have wired panels to keep unwanted visitors away.
I also plan to seal it because not sure what to use yet. I'm open to suggestions. I don't want to paint it because l like the natural look.
Thanks for taking a look
