    Without the help of my brother I couldn't have done it. He saved me about $300 from buying a prepaid rack.

    I didn't take any build pictures, but the design is pretty straight forward. We used melamine, screws, calk, melamine tape, and flexwat tape. The tools were just a standard table saw and drill. We google a few other design before building to get some ideas. Only down side is if I move, which I'm planning to, it's going to be a :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: to try to move this. It has to weigh almost 155lbs or more.

    I feel yeah on the weight, I just made a six shelve just like that, its pretty intense to pick up!

    Looking good though, I like that shorter shelve, thats what i should have done!

    Roughly how much flexwatt tape did you need to use to make it?

    Did you do under the tub heat or back heat?

    I need to get a rack built so I can get a snake shipped out.

    Wow that looks awesome! Hey I am wondering. Are you using that extra depth for anything? (aside from putting that plant on top) Are those tubs really deep? It is awesome I am just wondering if you made it so "fat" for a reason. I am definitely jealous!!!
