Thanks everyone!

Thanks for a great idea.

I threw it together kinda quickly today, but it turned out much better than I had planned. I will take some good pictures of it and throw on a little diagram of the platform tomorrow. It's fairly easy to make, and fits a floor tile nicely.

I'm no specialist, but it's pretty warm in the Philippines, right? Do you have thermometers in your cage? If so, leave one on the basking area for a little bit and see what the temperature is..I think they list ideal basking temps in the caresheet.
