I want to build a C&C cage with a stand like this: cept the cage is going to be 2X4
I'm crunching the numbers and saw that it would be helluva lot cheaper to purchase the grids/coroplast direct from the forums site. But it'll still be a bit tight.
Anyhow, my question is: Can I remove the 12 grids on the bottom of the cage base (right underneath the coroplast) and put the coroplast ontop of the stand pieces?
I attached an example I made from using Paint. It is a view of the top of the stand. Like you would be looking down into the cage.
Black lines are the grids on the outside of the cage
green lines are the end cubs of the stand (cubes like in the photo above)
Blue Lines are the middle grids inside the cubes (i am still currently decided wither or not to have those
Red line is a "grid wall" in the exact center of the cage/stand
Purple lines are grids going on both sides of the red lines
So going off what I provided. Would the coroplast be thick and sturdy enough to not need a grid bottom? The stand will end up being zip tied all over the outside and where each of them would come together at the bottom.
