new housing help

[stephenxiii]

I'm looking to get or even make a new house for my Tort.

The one i have the now is made from wood and was supplied from the the pet store, but over the 1 year i've had it moisture has started to rot the wood and now has made my new carpet wet.

its since been moved into the kitchen where its on Lino (with the table sad on a layer of lino, and inside the table a layer of lino under the substrate)

So is there any good tables out there that wont do this

and if i make my own how can i make it so it doesnt rot the wood

With wooden tables , most people varnish them and then line them with a thick pond liner or Lino, to stop them rotting . Or if you only need a small table , use an indoor rabbit cage.

How about making an outside coldframe with basking lamp and tube heater with poly carb lid to keep it all dry and secure.
