    Custom Gila rack project
    Here is a project I've been working on for weeks now in home stretch with little sanding, clearing and polishing left on sides and door. I wanted full security for my kids sake so went with PVC mesh in lay on sides and door plus a key lock.

    Now that this project is near complete I'm getting ready to start on the next rack I designed which will be a aluminum bot together system with adjustable shelves I'm working on ot to be adjust to accept 3 size tubs all in one rack. Here is a pic of the system we use for Gila cages for example this pic was for another reptile but you get the idea.

    This looks awesome! Is this framing 80/20? This is what I am using to build my enclosures although I am using the 1/4in T-slot framing. Which is this? Also where did you find that lock? I have been trying to find a latch mechanism like this instead of a jewlers lock.
