    Spacing help with my rack
    so im working on my new rack. I forgot to get 3/16 stock for spacers above the tubs and now i cant find my tape measure. Can anyone find a household item which could be used for spacers and let me know. Thanks

    I used a cardboard box when I made our last rack, just rip the glued joints so it lays out flat, and cut to fit underneath a tub.

    I usually use 2-3 normal CDs under each corner of the tub(or under each end if making a 6qt tub rack). Gives enough space for the flexwatt and the tubs to breathe, especially after the rack settles.

    AHh yes i was going to ask how many cd's would work. Three is a good number to go with? Its an adult rack with 32Qt sterilites.

    I have old panelling laying around from when I drywalled a room that had been previously panneled in my house. It works great!
