Has any one used these for their BPs?
This but with clear tubs.
I'm not very good with tools, even though building a rack seems easy enough, I would be sure to get something wrong. But looking at everyones racks, they kind of remind me of these.

I looked at those, but I think the drawers didn't have solid bottoms for heat tape or something. Also means that only the top tub had a ceiling.

Ahh okay, What about putting a piece of Plexi glass glass on top of each drawer and drilling holes in the side for ventilation? Still not a good idea?
Or getting the single ones and stacking them?

Re: Has any one used these for their BPs?
Hi,
I seem to remember people who had looked at them closely saying the drawers weren't rigid enough to prevent escapes and that pulling one out let the ones below get behind the drawer.
And if they didn't then there was no way to make sure they couldn't get to the heat tape for the shelf above.
Now to correct those it would actually just be easier to build something from scratch that didn't need modifying.
Basically all you have to build is a funny shaped bookcase after all.

Okay, thank you.
I was hoping to find an easy solution for a rack. I'll just have to find some one with the right tools to make me a rack.

Re: Has any one used these for their BPs?
I made a rack that i got from home depot it was on sale for $10 which was 36"L x 55"H(after i cut it though its only 29"H) and 18" deep.It says 4 shelves but its really only three with a top shelf to store stuff or put a glass tank on top or whatever you want took me like 30 minutes to build and all i needed to do was cut the plastic bars to the right height to fit the tubs and only tools you need is a tape measure and hand saw.Oh yeah and it hold 500lbs.
