6 feet! how many corns you planning on keeping in there!! and how big are they?!? too big imo, corns appreciate 3 or 4 feet.

i think b&q are pretty good for materials and will cut them all to size for ya aswell. runners etc for the doors can be bought on ebay. heating and decoration etc should cost about the same as a normal size viv, just will need more to fill it.

Take a look at my thread matey. I think you could build a viv for under £50 easily.
