this is going to be my basking area, i need to find a way to attach a ramp so my turtle can get up there! i got a piece of plexiglass now

please help, any info/ideas will help
Thank you!!

I used stainless steel L brackets but I screwed them into the plexi. Let me tell you it wasnt easy and was frustrasting but its been holding up great. Its not easy to drill through so be PATIENT

Is it in the tank?

i havent finished building the basking area, I'm just stuck on how to attach the ramp, i have a piece of plexiglass that i was going to use as the ramp, i just dont know how to attach it, and i also don't know how to make the ramp "rough" so my turtle can climb up there

from that pic its hard to tell which is the opening but i would just get a plexi drill bit a n drill holes in the plexi then attach with little bolts n nuts then zip tie a plastic net on the front for grip or rout lines in it for grip put a line of silicon caulk where the wood n plexi meet so it will be a smooth trans action out and in. there u have it if anything please let me know cuz i work with plexi everyday so i know quite alot about it.

Jb weld or epoxy putty.

I attached my ramp with epoxy putty a couple of years ago. Not a single problem with it.
