Step by step guide to building a storage cube bunny condo

Step 1. Making the floor

The first step is to build the floor of the enclosure, these are going to be made by lashing together the sheets to effectively make bigger sheets. Build this up to be the size of the enclosure you want.

Step 2. Making the walls

The next step is to build the four sides of the enclosure, these are going to be made again by lashing together the sheets to effectively make bigger sheets. Lash the walls on to the four sizes of the floor, pull the cable ties tight and don't worry about cutting of the excess now as this is easier to do at the end.

Once you have made the walls stand them up and lash them together. It may seem wobbly at first and you may need a second pair of hands at this stage but as you build the more of the box it will become surprisingly rigid.

Step 3. Making the roof

Next you will need to make the roof, in the same way that you made one on the sides lash together a grid. Once the roof sheet is complete, lash the roof against the walls. If you only lash it along the back edge and along the connecting sides halfway into the middle, you can create a lid that is hinged so you can open it up and reach in.

Step 4. Adding a door

The last stage is to add a door. Simply cut the cable ties along three of the edges of one of the grids and this will naturally hinge open. You will need to find some way to keep the door shut like a spring clip.
