Rack almost complete.....

Started this over the weekend, it's almost done just waiting on my flexwatt and then just need to put on my backer board and fill the screw holes in let me know what you think (keep in mind it's my first try :D ) It will hold 5 snakes, top shelf is storage for newspaper spare water bowls and so on.

thats pretty sweet. i think im going to attempt to make one this winter hopefully soon. i think im going to do a 6 qt rack first, you know start a little smaller than you did but thats because i have a rack already. so im guessing its made out of melamine?

what kinda wood did you use?

what size tubs are those, 32qt?

The wood is melamine, lowes has it cut down for shelving it was the perfect depth I just had to trim them down to length. The tubs are 30qt, I should be able to get 3 shoebox per shelf when I build a bigger one and turn that into a hatching rack.

tmartin2347 - what kind of rack do you have? I wanted to buy one but the cost difference to build it was ridiculous.

i have the 4-32qt sweaterbox rack from reptile basics. i love this thing. and i have the dividers in right now so they are 16qt tubs. i believe it was 234. how much did you spend total on the wood?

Everything was about 120 bucks and about 1 1/2 hrs labor. The reptile basics racks look great, but the money I saved helped me put money down on my 2 new snakes.

now THAT'S what we like to hear... MORE SNAKES!!!

Can never have too many snakes......well according to my wife you can

well she's wrong. sorry to be the one to break the news to you... but she's very very wrong.
