    New sexy XPVC rack!
    So I updated my snake corner in the living room to look a bit more professional and cleaner.

    Here is the before shot

    Here is the rack without bins and heat

    All done with heat and tubs! It holds 12 28qt tubs. It has wheels for moving it around easier, it's collapsible for ease of moving and it's sexy! Looks much better than before. Hope you like it!

    Yes. It's a DIY.

    Interlock what are you using for legs and spacers between the shelves. Very cool and clean looking. Nice job.

    That design looks great and straight forward! Hows much did it cost you to build?

    Ok. Here is a breakdown
    XPVC $300
    PVC tubes $20
    Wheels $15
    Hardware $40
    Heat tape $60
    Bins (using old ones but planing on getting new ones) $100

    Total $535

    Not too bad considering it would be tough to find an XPVC rack that holds 12 bins for that price. Plus it looks sexy.

    I love the look. I might have to look into finding something like that I can use for a new rack.

    Love it. You said your tubs are 28 quart? Do you keep adults in those? How big are your bps? I only ask so I can guage tub size for adult animals. Love your design. Congrats!!!
