I waterproofed it using diluted PVA glue, cheap as chips:

tht's a great little enclosure for hatchlings, can I ask how big it is?

It's four feet long, not exactly 'little'...

I got Horace a four foot table with an upstairs section off E-bay. Very well made with anti escape features. It has a huge hide.

I have just bought a baby bookcase from argos, £12.99, for my soon to arrive hatchlings! Bargain!

What a good idea. If you buy a bookcase do you have to waterproof it before you use it as a Tortoise Table? If so how do you do this so it is safe?
