This is the main center feature which has the waterfall piping and 2 medium hides (1) being on the ground level and the other mid way behind the waterfall it's self.

I got the images as clear as I could as they where taken behind glass so they may seem cloudy.

The thin glass tubing you see here and there is where I will have a climbing vine (live) running along them. No the paint tin is not one of the features,,lol.

This is a sample of the built up project. All features where made by me from scratch and made to look like a rock face type cliff with tunnels, made climbable for the snake and with the heat cord which covers the right side 3rd of the tank it offers a wide range of different hide types and temperatures. The power unit will be covered in mesh and was made to accommodate the water filter/pump and lighting. There is another power unit under the stand for other accessories as well.

Running waterfall feature.

I have been asked on other sites if I could make them one, Yes I can just send me a message for more details.


Let us know what you think.
 
Holy crap this is amazing. You're very handy! What do you for a profession, if you don't mind me asking. . .
 
LOL this could take a while.

I'm a Pastrychef, baker, chef, account, with 2 and half years of law, by trade but now semi retired working from home as a website developer, computer programmer, I own an online business hosting websites, sell domain names, online advertising, creating banners - logos etc. I've managed for the last 35yrs multi million dollar businesses within the hospitality industry which has allowed me to do quite a bit of travelling.

My hobbies are 4x4 driving, camping, working with steel, wood working, working on my 4x4, playing live poker tournaments when I have the time as well as being a jack of all trades on most home renovation projects.

hope that didn't bore you, lol.

On a lighter not I'm a very young active 50yrs old.

Now if I mentioned what I did in my life time and where I went I could write a book which I may do when/if I actually retire.
 
Note I'm also teaching my son to make some of these features which I will be putting up for sale. One thing which will be guaranteed is that what ever I make will not exist in any store anywhere and will be much cheaper.

As above, looks awesome, but make sure you have lots and lots of ventilation.
Good work!

Thank You

There is 2 large vented areas on the top. I also later want to place a small fan above one of them to circulate the air flow on hot days. fan will be pulling air out not pushing air in.

Cheers
 
Looks great. It is indeed a whole lot more fun if you can make this sort of things yourself, rather than buying them...

Love to more in the future ;-)
