    New rack almost done
    We build a new second rack tonight and wanted to share it with every one.
    It can hold 36 12qt or 18 28qt or 9 41qt or a mix of every thing. It 49" wide X 17" deep X 5 feet high with 9 shelves.

    I really like that one and will be building another soon myself. I was planning to build a multi tub unit also. What brand tubs are you using?

    Is it made out of melamine? It looks like it is sagging a bit in the middle so i would try and get the backpiece on asap. Other than that though it looks pretty good. What are you gunna be housing in it?

    Yes its made of 5/8 melamine, I read you reply and went to measure the shelve and there all 5 3/4" all across. As for the back board my van was full yesterday
    with 3 kids plus groceries, we are going back to home depot today for the back board. We are going to use the white peg board. ( I think that was it called, it has the small holes in it).Housing we are not sure yet, maybe the male and the juvenile for now and when we get some the hatchling we also have smaller bins for them, that we can fit 6 across a shelve.
