But yeah I basically have figured out the cost of stuff and got the numbers... Now it's about saving the money I need to make these.. I'll be able to get this done by march latest but more like February.. I'll make some DIY guides on making HDPE cages on here and youtube and then also I'll have...
You said I did not like your feedback which is not true and that is your subjective opinion .. I read it... took it in and then replied with the facts... if you go back you'll see I corrected you when you said PVC is stronger which is true but cage makers use XPVC so I was correcting the context...
We are adults I already apologized and explained I did not mean what I said in a bad way and I did not even think anybody would take it in a bad way... But I feel like im being made the bad guy so have a good day
But yeah my whole point of this thread was to get feedback and see if people were receptive to a HDPE cage because they are literally better than XPVC in every way which is what people are using unless they want to get actual PVC type 1 which is 200 for a 1/2 inch sheet of 4 x 8... PVC is great...
Ahh true, true.... I remember being 14 and wanting one because I felt comfortable owning one but I realized we were semi poor and building an enclosure would be expensive and I had no knowledge of how to... Now I have more resources to do it and been working since 16 close with carpenters so I...
My bad bro I did not mean to come off rude if you interpreted that way. I just type the way I think in my mind, I have to be more aware of my typing now because triple tegu thinks I am a douche for stating facts. But yeah my bad if it sounded rude I just wanted to be clear in what I was trying...
What??? I did not think I was being a douche at all, I came objectively I never mentioned anybody personally I just wanted to give the facts, I mean if you think I was being a douche please tell me where because my whole point of the thread is to inform people why HDPE is better than PVC and why...
Oh and more thing. HDPE is more expensive than foam board pvc which is why people dont use HDPE because it costs more which is why I wanted to make cages out of it and sell it within 50$ of animal plastics prices for their cages. By the way for bigger lizards like tegus HDPE would also have the...
Id like to reply back to this because PVC is vague I should have been clear, technically you are right PVC type 1 and type 2 are way stronger than HDPE but cage manufacturers use XPVC or expanded foam board pvc which is weaker than HDPE.... Actual PVC sheets like type 1 or 2 are over 200 bucks...
Just use a hardwood I work for a lumber yard I recommend birch , mahagony or maple. It is dense so its strong and sure to last you for a long time and its easy to stain so when you use drylok or another sealant it will adhere to hardwood much easier than softer wood. Also use some 2 x 4 as...
Marketing is not what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to get the idea out because it's a hobby first and it's too deep to get into it but I'm also a web developer so the fact I can build website for myself and show it to other people also helps me out in the tech industry. Besides that though the...
Ok cool I got your opinion. To give a simple response to your statement about everyone would if it wasnt so expensive. I have the solution I could build the cages and offer the same or a slight (20-40$ more than cage makers)
Its more of a matter of researching and seeing if people want to buy...
