Agreed, you are able to use the scorer, but I never quite got it down. I was never able to get a straight cut, and I'd often go off the line and scratch the acrylic I was working on. Not to mention, cleanness of the lines doesn't matter in the project, luckily.
True ^^ It is easy to get straight line if you are cutting along metal ruler. For me the trick was in first cut. You need to use little force, then you make deeper cuts that are now guided with that first shallow cut
Relly very nice . Thankuu for the knowledge. But can u make this video with somthing to hold the substrate so can be visible form the front acrilic glass it will look relly cool
+EulersK gotcha, also I'm not a fan of glass because of the green tint, I'm considerating using starfire/low iron glass to build a few enclosures, but I like the slight insulating properties of acrylic vs glass, just not a fan of ease of scratching and possible crazing with age.
What if i want the enclosure to be about 5 or 6 times bigger. Let the spider go and hunt for its food rather than hand feeding. Let go look for uits food. Ya know?? Would that be a good idea?
Not really, no. It's not that a large enclosure is bad for the spider, it's that tarantulas are ambush predators. You could put them in a massive enclosure, but they'll still stick to their burrow/hide. Wandering very far from the safety of their hide is a great way to be eaten by a bird, so they just don't do it. And to be clear, I've never hand fed - I still just drop the roach into their enclosure.
Nothing wrong with a huge enclosure, so long as you keep a few things in mind. Large enclosures have large cracks, leading to an escape with smaller slings. It also makes maintenance more difficult. I mean, he's getting a G. pulchripes last I checked. They grow like weeds, it won't be a "massive" enclosure for long.
You can use snap-off blade cutter to cut acrylic...i find it easier and cleaner, much like cutting the glass.

@@TheDarkDen I agreee to this comment great work. guys!
Thanks. I found my next project.

Can you use a dremel to drill the holes on the sides?
great video, one thing I think that might help the glue grab the acrylic more is to drill a few holes in the acrylic along the glue contact lines.
You know, I actually tried that. It works like a charm, but it obviously gets pretty messy. It does hold tighter though, so there's that.

I thought this guy was James Charles apologizing to Tati
That’s weird, the RUBs in the US have the side openings? In the UK(where I believe the company is based) they don’t have that side opening.
I work for the company yes you are right we are based in the UK and we make both kinds one's with side openings and one's without.
Do you have a video showing the difference for making an arboreal enclosure?
Hi what size of rub did you use here?
Those are the 8 liter size

Ok Cool
We really need to link that dominator6675 guy to this video. That guy's as stubborn as a mule. He really wants to use that big snake enclosure.
