bp's are turning me into a carpenter!

[koloo921]

This is the first thing that I ever built out of wood, so I had to share a few pictures

Hillbilly snake rack!!!! (28 qt tubs)

My work area!

Tip: My saw horses turned into my work light tripod. 2 x 4's were great for cutting by yourself. If you cut with saw horses you really need a helper. Oh and a Black n Decker 14 volt circular saw is not going to cut it. LOL



The kitchen table and wall are great helpers!




Newspaper works great as shims so that the tubs slide out nice


My only mistake is: I can't move it. LOL It weighs a lot more than me. I will have to wait for someone to visit to move it into the snake room.

Looks very nice! I can't wait to make my first rack after I move this summer!!

Well Done! It seems that snakes turn many enthusiasts into carpenters

Hi,

It looks good.

I put wheels on all mine now just because of the weight.

Yeah....nice work but they are hella heavy! My buddy and I bout killed ourselves bringing mine upstairs. 8 tub adult BP's rack!

Great job and looks like it'll serve you very well for years to come. And with the Black and Decker not cutting it, that's all the more reason to buy new power tools, lmao!

Did you paint the exposed fiberboard or use melamine iron on edging?

I painted the exposed fiberboard.

It was a lot easier than I thought! Good luck with yours.

Yeah, I looked everywhere for sheets of melamine that was thinner than 3/4". I did not have any luck.
