checkout my new rack

just finished let me know what you think!!! oh, and i just put in the flexwatt but am having trouble getting my temp in my tubs above 80. I knew i should have got bigger tape:( but the only thing i can think of is to raise the temp on the flexwatt. so what is a safe range to put your flexwatt up to before it gets dangerous to either the snake or me???? please help!!!!! Thank you

let me know what you think. It's the first rack I've ever built so try not to be to mean. Thank you!!!!!!

Looks pretty good for a first rack!
Did you duct tape the accurite to the inside of the tub? I would really suggest removing it if it is tape. They will always find a way to get stuck to it.

Good Job :)

yea i did, couldnt figure out a way to keep it upright in there. So one day i thought i would try it out and see how the snakes dealt with it. and it seemed fine. but i am getting a better thermostat and a temp gun on friday so the accurite will be outta there by friday. And thank you

Fine work, Rocky. Looks good. :gj:

Rocky, I dig the rack :gj:
Where in Cali r u?

well another way to set the display up would be drill 2 little holes on either side of the unit ( though the tub) and tie strap it in place. this way no worry about the snake getting the tape stuck to itself. I seen it happen. it not fun to get snake loose from tape. the hole will act as vents and also hold the display so you can read it .

Great job on your first rack. Did you cover the back of the rack? That might help hold heat in your hot side. Just a thought. Keep up the good work.

Good idea about that tie. I've also used a small strip of velcro and that works fine as well. Snakes and tape never mix.
