    Screws through the sides. I built one similar. Make sure if you do build one you drill holes before putting the screws in else you may crack your board.

    Re: made a new rack!!!!!!

    thank you everyone. And yes, with screws. And again yes pre-drilled holes are a must. But a trick I experimented with and works GREAT is... You take a large drill bit ( one that is the same width as the flat end of the screw). And just drill about 1/8 in. into the board, so that you can get the melamine out of the way so that you can sink the screws(impossible to do if you don't chip away the melamine) Then plug the holes with spackle(sorry dont know how to spell it) Thus a BEAUTIFUL RACK. Did not have that done in the pics. just did it today so if you want a pic let me know

    well my five bp's that I already have of coarse. And I have another female pastel on the way tomorrow along with a male albino. And that leaves me 3 spots for my female mojo that'll be here on the 13th. Then I am going to reptile super show looking to get a male butter, female spider, and a pair of het piebalds. Oh thats two extra spot I need . Wait I also got the rack I had before this one. So that leaves me 3 spots for females then I am done for a while
