Habitat - Indoor :: PVC Basking Spots?

[nightwalker]

Hello

I've been reading over a lot of posts here and a bunch of you have mentioned basking spots made out of PVC pipes

i thought its a great idea since it saves space and provides a hiding spot for my donatello

but i've searched and searched and have yet found a thread with any pictures of how the PVC pipes work

can any of you explain to me how to built one and/or provide me with some examples

thank you in advance

Here is an example of one.. I know there are others in the photo gallery.. you'll have to either search for them or go through each post...

cool, thanks!

ok, can someone fill me in on how to cut (or what kind of equipment i need to cut) PVC pipes?

also what do ppl use for the top basking part

If you go to the section where they have the tubing, you will find a little cuter that goes around the pipe and oyou tighten it as you go around. You keep tightening the cuter until you cut through the tubing. It is real easy to cut.

First of all you dont "build" PVC pipe. Its lying around all over the place in hardware stores. Second, you dont need any fancy tool, you cut it with a radical invention called a saw. ANY saw will do. Third, put it in the tank.
