    I LOVE how you just used one long piece of flexwatt instead of ilke 12 different strips. I bet that keeps the temperatures very consistent on the strip. And you can put 5 more racks on that thermostat too if you wanted...

    Good job, I like the way you kept that bottom shelf off of the ground. Next time if you can think of a way to build side walls, you can eliminate the need for hide boxes and also will keep a little more heat throughout the tubs.

    Looks good.

    Only think i would change is how you taped/secured the flexwatt down. Never cover it entirely as its a fire hazzard. I did a trial on this and the surfae of the foil tape was 92 but just under on the surface of flex watt was reading 109+

    Just tape the edges down to hold it down.
