Rack designs??

My husband is a carpenter and after seeing you alls setups he was wondering where we might find some "blueprints" so to speak of, that might take a bit of the guess work of building one. I really like Kagez28's set up but its way bigger than we need. I am not planning on breeding but neither do we really want to have a house full of 30g glass tanks and I think a smaller rack system would be perfect. Any ideas?

PS. I have been looking online at makers of rack but they are really expensive IMO and the hubby needs a hobby for the winter. :P

in the DIY section here on bp.net, i think theres a rack...i might be wrong

heres the two from this web page. but if you get the height dims and the depth dims, you should be able to customize your over all number of levels and length. hope i helped a lil :gj:

Here are my plans; it's a step by step pdf on how to make it: http://www.blueappleherps.com/page13/page14/page14.html

Someone else on here used them and modified it to only hold 5 tubs and they also substituted in 3/8" plywood for the sintra. Turned out very nice.

Good point, LOL Of course he would be working in between his sports weekends. Trying to tear him away from a football or basketball game or a Nascar race is almost next to impossible so it just might take all winter ;)

I have a some good "Blueprints" for some cages that I bought off of Ebay for like, $10. . .this guy has them for sale on his site, but if you give me your email addy in a private message i'll send them to you, but I want to see the final result when he builds them :D

Here is a link to 3 different rack designs of ours. Maybe they will help a bit.

Thanks! :) (sort of a big file, but I've never claimed to be a computer expert, so I don't know how to make it smaller. The fact that I even got it set up to download is quite an accomplishment!)
