heres what i did....
roach was in a 33 gal aquarium which was getting small so i built a custom enclosure out a an old dresser.

first fins a dresser (apprx. 4 to 5 drawers high) actually as big as you can find.
1. take out the drawers
2.knock out all the supports for the drawers (you should then have a big box with no front)
3. cut a rectangle in the top and cover w/ a screen. (this is where to sit your lighting)
4. then design the inside (shelves, things to climb etc..)
5.add the furnishings (litter box etc.)
6. then get a peice of plexi-glass cut that covers the front( note: this will be the only way in the enclosure) you can put it on hinges w/ a lock or whatever.

i'll be finish building mine by tomorow so i'll try to get some pics posted.

good luck
