Snake Racks

Does anyone know of any cheaper snake racks? I have plans to build one and its going to run about $300 for everything from the tubs, wood, heat tape, and thermostat. Just wanted to see if anyone knew of any cheaper before i committed to this.

What size tubs, and how many shelves are we talking???

If i build one it will have 27'' by 16'' tubs from the container store and it will have 5 shelves

Cheapest is to build it yourself, naturally. :) That way, you can also design it to conform to any arrangement of tubs you wish.

The only pre-made rack I would see as worth the money is one that comes with heat and tubs that is still below $300. Otherwise, it's just easier to build it or have a friend do so if you are not adept with tools. :D

Have the store cut it for ya. Just make sure you bring the dimensions in and make sure you walk out with the right cut dimensions. :gj:

I would vote...DIY with that many tubs and that spending money
