My DIY Fake wood. First attempt

[Reptile Vivarium]

That is great innovation. I admire your creativity to turn a PVC pipe into an artificial reptile vivarium branch. I will keep this project in mind next time I create new decorations for functionality and aesthetics in my reptile vivariums! Thanks.

These really look great and I'm addicted to the ones made in the black PVC found on the frog forum!

I wonder if realistic fake bamboo could be make this way too. That would be great for day geckos builds! Just hard to say if it would be worth the effort... no annoying cracks at least!

Great job CrazyAirborne! I'm into it! I'll be experimenting soon Thanks for the link to your inspiration. You both did a great job! It looks like different pipe used in each, maybe not though???

[CrazyAirborne]

yeah all the pics in this thread are my work. I did use different diameter pipe depending on what i wanted the final outcome to be. The one thing I would like to try is using a really large diameter like 3+ inch, to make logs that the critters would be able to go inside and use them as hides and whatnot. The only ones Ive made so far were more just for branches to "perch" on more than anything.

excuse my language, but that is the shiiiiiiii.....t

exactly what I was looking for to get the vine look w/o buying a pre-made one... nothing to do w/ economics, as I'll have to buy all these supplies (or borrow a torch), I just wanted to be able to *make* everything from scratch for this project.

thanks for sharing!
