Default Ten Gallon Tank Platform

I just bought a ten gallon tank, tank cover and everything for my new leo. However, everyone has said that 10 gallons are either too smaller or barely big enough for a leo. They said that I could build a platform in the cage out of tile and wooden dowels. How would I be able to do this? I just can't see how it would be stable enough with four dowels. How would I fasten down the dowels. And how do I attach the tile? Still more questions. SHould I build the platform over the cool or warm side? How to I build a ramp up to the platform and how big should it be for a tank that is 18 inches long, 10 inches wide, and 12 inches tall? I think I should put it 6 inches up, 9 inches long, but how wide should I make it if I want a ramp up to it? Sorry for all the questions, but I am getting my gecko next Tuesday and I only found out it was too small today.

Just because I wanted to do the same thing, how did you go about doing it?
