The tables were home made using legs from B&Q

These arent my cages, but the pictures gave me ideas - thought they could be useful to you..

If you could some how make the bottom door open fully you could pull out the correx bottom?

Maybe you should be putting a patent on your fabby design love x)

Of course you'll have to advise that a Cleo hoover is required too

Wow, I love the new design (the old set up was fab too).

Cleo and your dad are both fabulous. :)

That is an awesome set up!

I'd like C&C grids but the problem here is that we don't have a lot of space so need the cages to stack. I have 2 rat cages stacking on my piggie cage!

Mine is stacked with a rabbit cage underneath, its on wheels also.

(its 2x5 and 4 grids high)
 
Brilliant, thanks for the ideas! At the moment I could simply hinge the bottom grinds along the floor so they drop down like in your diagram so I won't need to spend any money for the time being. :))
I wanted to raise everything to lean in the bottom too but it blocks my window. I may make the tables at a later date as I think they look most secure.
Right, off to find my cable ties :))
 
Actually the top layer sits On a thick wooden top ( mdf) I could just attach legs to that couldn't I?! mallethead

I can't see why not!

The legs I had on my original table were 30cm (12inch) so a little smaller the the 14inch grid
http://www.diy.com/nav/fix/hardware...re-Leg-L130XW-White-H300mm-x-32mm-Dia-9281980

Now I have 500cm legs (almost 20inch) so the very top of the cage is 91cm (36inch)

Your window looks to be in the photo about 6 inches higher than the top of your cage, so the 50cm legs should bring the top of the cage up that 6 inch to the window?

Anyway have fun with your modifications, and look forward to photos ;)
