Thankyou sandy, it does look a bit homemade might be worth gluing a large 12" ruler to a piece of wood and creating the sliding things x

You can buy them from Tortoise World on the 'net. It would be a wonderful device if torts sat still!!!

Thankyou Charlotte, I took a look on their website, £28 (and it does just look like a ruler stuck to a piece of wood lol, but if I glue another piece of wood along the bottom, the torts legs would dangle so it would be easier to keep them still rather then me pushing them against a wall where they can use their legs to push against you and them getting stressed lol here it is:
