They are peel-and-stick tiles. You just remove the paper backing to reveal an adhesive surface that sticks to the wood.

It is cheaper not to put up ramps, because it's easy for healthy rabbits to jump between levels. If you had a rabbit with mobility issues, you may need to build a ramp, but I've never used them.

Hi! Thanks for the video!

How many single wire squares did it take to make this? (I think I counted 43...but I'm not sure.)

Do you know the best place to buy the cheapest wire squares...they get kind've expensive!!?

[cedarcottage]

We used two boxes of squares that came with 23 per box, and that ran us about $60. The fill detailed price list is on the rabbitcondo website.

You can sometimes find people selling them used. Try Craigslist.

Hello, I plan on making this exact cage next weekend. I have a question about the levels, how do the metal squares attach to the actual frame, and how does it stay put and not sway when the wood/vinyl tiles are put on? Also I recall your list of materials says 100 screws? What are these for? Thanks!

[cedarcottage]

The metal squares that support the wooden levels are attached the same way as everything else, with nylon ties. All of the various walls are held tight to the wooden base with the ties. Also the 3 wooden shelves help keep it all rigid. The screws are for attaching the five wheels to the bottom of the base. You could probably get away with buying 20 of them.

how did he attach the vinyl tile to the plywood?

Is it cheaper to make a ramp instead of a jump thing? Also, how would you do this?

[TheDreamTheater]

This looks like exactly what i want to build for them but my only concern is I expect my rabbits to chew through all those plastic ties(or most in one section) you use and it come crashing down hurting them or letting them loose while i may be at work. Im considering a wooden frame, i seen in other home built ones. Am i thinking to much about this? i know the ties are cheap to replace. Thanks alot!
