One big rack....

Just finished my rack went with 7 shelves...and belly heat....very big and very heavy...48inches high and 35inches front to back ahttp://ball-pythons.net/gallery/file..._001_thumb.jpgnd 20inches across... Sorry about the picture came out sideways..

I'm thinking about the same type - just curious how it actually prices out if you don't mind to share - trying to decide if its a project that makes sense for me pricewise - i was looking recently at the animal plastics - 6 tray racks with heat around $300 - ????

Its melamine wood and the wood cost me $90.00 the heat tape cost me $30.00..and wheels were $12.00 and screws were $6.00..so total was $138.00..

far less than half whattheir selling - and a much better rack i would think - thanks again

I'm guessing tubs were pricey ? They are down here.

2 of my tubs were $14.00 each and 3 other tubs were $9.00 each..the 14.00 tubs are on wheels...

Wow that's huge. I want something big like that! How long did it take to make?

Awesome job, I am actually about to build a 10 shelf high double wide rack. To hold the CB70 tubs. It is so much easier and cheaper to build your own. Congrats on that rack though, it looks great.

nice job. the best part of building your own is you can customize it to your needs.

To the OP, great looking rack. good job.

Not better. ABS Plastic is way better. It lasts longer and isn't so heavy. all the heavy weight of the melamine will end up making the shelves sag in time.

Thanks... pretty proud about how nice the rack came out...and yes u are right about the weight it is freaking heavy as hell... took three of us to carry up the stairs.....

Melamine is heavy, that is for sure. The only down side to ABS plastic is its price though.
