How often you have to clean the moisture from the glass?

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I clean the glass once a week or so. The moisture build-up is not that bad. I should take a picture..

All that’s missing is a tiny little fellowship in there

Nice one mate. I need a glass table to display my collection.

@OP How did you moisture proof the wood?

6 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

That's what I was wondering as well. Admittedly, I don't know much about treating wood but I know they often make terrariums out of glass

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

My guess is that it's cedar

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

A millipede, a couple pill bugs, and 2 or 3 earthworms would probably make that a very lively and vibrant environment. Very cool, though!

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Thanks! I have a full neighborhood here. Millipedes, earthworms and 20+ isopods. Some springtails too:)

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Cool! I had one in a huge glass jar. All kinds of critters came out of the soil, especially after the addition of maidenhair ferns & mosses.

Isn’t a glass table a poor choice for card games because of the reflection?

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Also, w/ the cross bars & depth of the terrarium box, how the hell are you supposed to scoot a chair in? No room for your legs.

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Even apart from reflections, glass is a horrible surface to pick cards up from. A slightly padded fabric surface is the way to go.

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I wonder how that will look in a year or five

Enclosed terrarium so not too much. You will need to water every month or so and you will need springtails and isopods for the maintenance

6 years ago | Likes 91 Dislikes 0

if the moss actually gets enough light to grow you'll eventually have to cut it, it will grow up the sides and onto the glass eventually

This, and the surface doesn't look big enough to play cards either. Maybe OP should just call it a table. Not knocking the table itself tho.

My biggest concern is that if it's a card table reflections in the glass might give away your hand.

6 years ago | Likes 52 Dislikes 0

I wonder if you could get some type of one-way glass, stuff that you could see down into the terrarium, not out of it. Would that reflect?

6 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

As long as the cards are flat, there wont be a reflection. However, those who like to just peel the corner off the table...

6 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And not that the moss is in direct contact with the table's wood?

6 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Surely the wood is treated.
