The only thing that would make this tutorial better would be links to the products. I'm having trouble finding exactly what I want for my first jumping spider, so I'm DIYing one. This helps so much!

What where the measurements of all the acrylic parts used?

@Mauro-qy6sr 2 года назад

hello What glue did you use? Acrylic does not mean anything....

@Jess-vk6mp Год назад

Acrylic is the same thing as plexiglass. Just search acrylic glue or plexiglass glue and you should fine it.

@angelicaterry3367 2 года назад

Wow this looks really good. I'm hoping to build something similar. May I ask if the drill bit you used is one of the nail drill attachments or the long protruding thing that comes out of the nail drill that the drill attachments fit onto?

@dnadesignn 2 года назад

I don't really get what you mean by drill attachments but here's what I can explain 😂 The nail drill comes with several drill bits that are used for sanding, not for making holes. So I bought a new drill bit and a drill collet that matches the drill bit size. I attached the drill bit by putting the collet in the nail drill.

@5ubv3rsion 3 года назад

These look amazing! May I ask what brand of acrylic glue and what sized drill bit you used?

@dnadesignn 3 года назад

Thank you! It doesn't has a brand because it is a local product and the drill bit size is around 2.2 mm, but I suggest you to use 3 mm drill bit, for a better air circulation.

@liamanado4456 Год назад

So i was thinking of making one of these for my pet spider when i get it, but i searched up "acrylic glue fuse toxic fumes" and it said it takes months for the glue to stop giving off fumes, and i think it will kill the spider, so i want your opinion on this because you make these enclosures for your spiders. Will the fumes kill my spiders?

Hi there. Awesome vid, how much cost would you say there is in material? Acrylic, hinges and magents. Thanks in advance!

@dnadesignn 2 года назад

Well, depends on where you live. In my country it costed me around 3 USD for an enclosure that size. No problem!

Would this be sturdy enough for a big tarantula? obviously a bigger version, I'm just scared in case it falls apart and have a spider running around again😅

@dnadesignn Год назад

Use thicker acrylic and acrylic corner brackets so that you don't need to worry about that 😁

I want to make a door with size 1ft × 2ft 3mm, will the glue with acrylic hinge will be durable? What do you think?

@dnadesignn 7 месяцев назад

You can use larger hinges and also consider using thicker acrylics maybe 4mm at least

@AviariolasDunas 7 месяцев назад

What glue are you using to stick the acrylic?

@dnadesignn 7 месяцев назад

It's called acrylic glue, specially used only for acrylics.

@dardar34 Год назад

what milimiter the hole is? thanks for the answer

@dnadesignn Год назад

Sure no problem, it was 2 mm but I think it was too small, 3 mm would be the best for it.

@mart9214 3 года назад

where do you buy acrylic hinges? I can't find them very easy or very expensive (€7 for 1)

@dnadesignn 3 года назад

I live in southeast asia and I bought them from a local online store. You can buy it from amazon for $8 / 12pcs.

Would the acrylic warp from humidity?

@dnadesignn 2 года назад

Not from humidity but from heat, it could bend a bit. Use thicker acrylics for stronger structure 👍

What are you using to cut the acrylic with?

@RockTaco1000 Год назад

Not the drill I mean to cut each panel.

@dnadesignn Год назад

I bought the sheets already cut like that. They use laser to cut it smoothly, and there is a tool you can use to cut it manually, it's an acrylic cutter.

@hendrickchen7091 Год назад

Is all the sheet cut in same size Or some pieces need to be bigger?

@dnadesignn Год назад

Some pieces need to be bigger, of course, if you want to have it glued nice and tidy. Some part of the sheets you have to add the size by the thickness of the sheet. Also, if you want to make the enclosure taller or wider.

That's around 13cm and the thickness is 2mm. If you want to measure every side of the enclosure, I have a detailed explanation in my older video "How to Make Acrylic Enclosure (Measuring, Cutting ..." Hope it helps 👍
