building a 6x2x2 for albino burmese

basically i want this thing to hold hummidty well ,i have a 3ft viv at the moment,made of wood,runner at top and bottom,and four vents at the back, it doesnt really hold hummidity well, drops to 40% if left all day

my questions are

what wood to use?
will putting tight fitting runners up the sides and a material spacer inbetween where the glass over laps work well?
would i be better making a drop door for it instead?
what width of glass should i use?

or alternativley - does any one know of anyone near belfast that would build this for me???

If the viv you hasve doesn't hold humidity well, try blocking up 2 of the vents (the middle 2) and see if that helps
