    Oh my!! You made building the glass terrarium look so easy. I have always wanted to try but was unsure that I could do a good job adding the silicone. I had no idea that corner clamps existed and will be going to get some today. I am excited to give a project like this a try. I like everything that you did to scape this, and envious that your supply of springtails is so rebust. My cultures are not doing well for some reason.🙃🤔

    You are a genius. Your terrariums have reached another level. That bamboo skewer seems to work great. I used to break glass at the edge of the table. I broke many the wrong way. The suction cup as a handle is a great idea too. The terrarium looks wonderful! May I suggest a channel for you? It has mossy landscapes. The name of the channel is "Erwin Saunders". You use a lot of moss, so I thought of you.

    This video has changed my life. I've been working on a set of stained glass terrariums and cutting the glass has been a reoccurring problem as my straight edge was constantly sliding, causing my knife to slip. After seeing this, I got double-sided foam tape and cutting glass is now a breeze. I'm using a bamboo skewer to break my glass as well now, and it feels far more gentle than traditional glass breakers.
    I'll be scaping my terrarium soon! Can't wait.

    Thank you for the great tips for cutting the glass I’ve been putting off making a tank cover for fear of breaking it in the wrong place. The skewers & double sided tape ideas are genius! I might even have a go at this project if all goes well….. I do wonder how I can cut out small sections of glass tho, for filter cable etc. any tips? ❤️🇦🇺
