Multi tub level rat rack help!

So I've been wanting to up my rat breeding but I have no more rack space so I am looking to build another rack. I plan to build a rack 3-4 tubs wide using the home depot mortar mixing tubs. I have heard people say building multi tub wide with wood isn't the best idea but I plan to use 2x4s upright. I've figured it will take a little less wood to make it as well as take up a little less space. I have seen many multi tub racks using litter pans and my biggest problem right now is what to use as the spacers inbetween the tubs. Each tub's "lip" that would slide on the rails is 1 inch wide. Any suggestions on what to do for the spacers between each tub?

how about pvc pipe as a spacer and screw a 2x4 across as the rail?

Just have me build it for ya lol

I just built one using those mortar tubes, 3 tubs wide and 5 rows high. I used 1x2 as the railing and a 1x1 as a spacer between the rail and the wire. I will see if I can get a video tonight for you if you want.

Here is a double wide rack I built
