Well Next is hooking up the second herpstat, hooking up a light over the table, doing all the wiring for 3 ranco's on the incubator (Back-ups to back-ups, nothing like over kill), then it is all the edge trim work.

SOOOO AWESOME!! creative award of the year goes to!!!! Glory hound!

That is one efficient use of space right there, I tell you what.
I look forward to any other projects you start.

It's looking better and better!!! I love it!! :gj::gj:

wow.. that looks fantastic. great job. I wish I had a spot like that to put to good snakey use. :D

It looks great.
i wish i could do something like that!

Anyone could do it. All you have to do is make a plan, be able to use a tape measure or rule, and have the tools to do it. I need to add a couple tools to my collection as I had to improvise in a couple places. Now that I am starting the edge trim I really wish I had a joiner.

Very cool I just have on question...

Does any of that come back out incase you need to reattach wires replace a faulty peice of flexwatt or reattach your thermostat prob for any reason??

Each riser of the steps is held in place with 4 screws that each one can be quickly removed. The incubator can be slid out also to give access to everything except the two tubs closest to the bottom of the stairs. Also if I had to I could worm over the hidden shelf to get back to it all, but it would not be fun! :slamhead:

Awesome efficient use of space!

Note to self: Incubator fans cause vibration. The larger the incubator the larger the fan the more vibration created.

Well I got my incubator all hooked up and started it up. That is when things turned bad. :mad: The fan in the incubator is causing enough vibration that it can be felt on the faces of the tubs in the rack. This is not acceptable! :tears: I tried all kinds of vibration dampening techniques with minimal to no effect. So now the incubator will be moved to the other side of the room and I have to design something else to go into its place. I am thinking of putting another 4 sweater box type rack in its place. I think I have enough room, but I will have to double check. If that doesn't fit I will put 8-10 baby tubs in or I might even look to see how many 15 qt tubs I can fit in the space. Moving the incubator really isn't that big of a deal since the whole room is supposed to turn into the snake room eventually and the origional plan called for racks all along the other wall. (1 ten high CB-70, 1 ten high sweater box, and a double side by side ten high of baby tubs) Oh well, we live and learn and are better for the things we discover.

Awesome job, I'm sure you'll figure the vibrating incubator situation out...*why did that sound so bad* :oops:

Did you try like, rubber feet? Or some kind of shock absorber?

I put a different type of fan in and the vibration stopped. Now I just have to figure out if this new fan will hold up to the humidity!
