after a nightmare with photoshop (while i should be working oops) here are my drawings for the cage.

Front.
for easy cleaning ive made the door almost full height.

Back.
the current cage is so big that i cant clean the wood at the back so its quite minging. the new cage will have a bottom opening door so it will always sparkle

The sides.
nice and small openings for lettin the chippies out and putting in food.. at the moment it takes about 10 mins to secure shut using curtain wire...

Top & Bottom.
hopefully once put together the top and bottom will fit within the main frame fingers crossed..lolol

finally with prayers to all gods going all the sides, top and bottom will all be bolted together and it should be a perfect fit (not scared ive drawn it wrong honest).

overall view from the top.

there are 3 shiney new shelves to go in. the little houses and rope will be reused once theyve had a good clean.

really sad i know but im soooooooooo excited :oops::oops:

Blimey it makes my chicken coop constructed of old bits of fencing panel and wooden slats look like a Blue Peter project!

That is extremely well planned out!:D
 
Ace plans. I don't understand them either but I grew up with an engineer Dad and now live with one so I'm used to seeing tecnhical looking stuff lying around.

i used autocad to do the drawings, created pdfs and then had to use photoshop to make them the jpeg. i found wood sizes on the net.. turns out they are closer to 50mm square than the 44mm i assumed... 20mm sq more space for the chippies lolololol

i work as a structural technician :)

whooop whooop the frame is almost done.... one more door opening and then just the mesh and shelves to be done... my angels will be able to move in this weekend :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Cool, lucky chippes getting a place like that
thought they looked more like autocad than photoshop, was gonna say teach me to do that if it's photoshop (already can do autocad - blame my degree :p Just hate hate hate the programme we use)

Also meant to say - I used to want to be a structural technician, then discovered mechanical engineering was fun
