    New Medium Bus Tub Rack.
    I like the bus tubs for keeping colubrids and smaller boas in so I designed and built a rack using them. I took lots of pictures and plan to put a write-up on how to build it together soon.

    Here's some pictures of it.

    Thanks.

    I get them from a local restaurant source. PM me if you can't find any. I can get them to you cheaper than FB or ARS sell them for.

    cool thanks...I am leaning toward making a baby rack and using the vision baby tubs since they are I believe 3 3/4 and I can add more rolls saving inches here and there...

    No problem. These tubs are perfect for most colubrids and male ball pythons.

    Did you use peg board, or is that some kind of PVC?? I cant find anything like that if its PVC would love to know where you found it. :gj:

    It's 1/8" Expanded PVC. I drilled 300+ holes in each level. I clamped them all together and then drilled all the holes to save time. I then sanded every piece smooth.
