My new rack - almost finished! (DUW)
Well, after months of fussing and changing my mind about how I wanted it done :rolleyes: it's almost finished!
I am going to add doors and locks which will be painted with the vines. I am also adding dragonfly's to the doors along with finishing trim for the entire rack. Heated with flexwatt in three seperate sections...each with an alarm that will alert me if temps are too high or too low.
This thing is HUGE! I'm glad we decided to add wheels! Rack holds 8 adults, 6 sub adults and 12 hatchlings.

I really like how the leaves turned out.

LOL, okay, I was going to say, with the humidity and "splashing" (peeing) they can do, that MDF would swell like a balloon. :P

Curious question. How will 3 pieces of Flexwatt keep all the tub warm? Will there also be UTH for each tub?
Thanks Mike.

Mike,
All shelves have heat. I have it set up so I can turn on one section, two or three, depending on my needs. (so if at any time I do not have hatchlings, I don't need to run the top heat) Three seperate controls.
Hope I explained that right.
