Brimmer 220 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Looks big enough to hold 4 hobs in comfort! The sanding and varnishing take a bit of time though! Quote Link to post

Brimmer 220 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 just weighed it its 4.5lbs and measures 2ft x 8 x8 Not a bad size at all, i wished the one i made this year was a little bigger, or a little smaller. It's maybee just too big for 2 ferrets, but not big enogh for 4 ferrets, and 3 is a squeeze. I'll be building a few HILTON boxes during the summer! Quote Link to post
