The heating 'pad' is a sock filled with uncooked rice. I used a hair tie to tie it off with, then folded the rest of the sock down over it.
<- This is the sock with just the hair tie.
<- Sock folded over.
This can actually get pretty warm! xD I accidentally put it in the microwave for about 2 mins on accident and it burned my cheek since I was testing the ehat with my face.
The cooler is basically one of those ice-pack sticks that has a bandanna wrapped around it. I also secured this with hair ties.
<- The top side of it I guess. LOOK THERE ARE SHOES IN THE BACKGROUND.
<- Look an arm! This is it pretty much vertical. =/
I haven't tested it's cold ability with the bandanna on it, but I know the ice-pack works. I used to sue the icepack to keep meat warm frozen when we head up to Michigan's Upper Peninsula to camp.
In other news I ordered a coroplast tray from Piggie Bed Spreads! [http://www.piggybedspreads.com/] I also bought some more cube connectors from Amazon. I doubt that you guys don't know what amazon is. I won't link since it's so common anyway. xD
I also bought a small garbage can from Dollar Tree. I plan on cutting a hole in the bottom, covering it with chicken wire. I'm afraid that chicken wires 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch holes will be to small for hay. So I am going to cut out some of the cross sections of the wire to make the openings 1 inch by 1 inch.
Before I made this stuff I found somethings around my house I could be using. I found a little lap pad I made for my hamsters, a big ferret tunnel, and a build-a-bear dog bed. :) Less money needed on those now, so I can spend more on everything else!
