Efrain: The cage looks nice. I am not sure if it was a deliberate decision with the main hoop to put the foot on the top of the frame, or not. I had my cage built with the foot of the main hoop on the floor with the mounting plate extending from the floor up the cross frame and the side frame (two vertical surfaces). I notice that the foot of the front down tube is done that way. I also have a cross brace at the foot of the rear braces. But the cage looks real strong.
