    Hatchling Rack Built

    Just built it today. Holds 12 sterilite 16 qt tubs with out lids. Or 6 28qt sterilite tubs with lids on. Just have flexwatt soldering left and the edging on the wood as i ran out of it.

    (2) 17"x48" Sides
    (7) 25"x17" Shelves
    (1) 24"x48" Peg Board
    (1) 3"x25" Bottom Kick Plate
    Total: wood/screws $73 at lowes. Tubs $29, Flexwat 12ft $30 shipped.

    All together $132.xx. Way cheaper than buying one with no tubs or heat.

    Thanks. you can build it same size but get tubs as you need them rather buy them all up front. that will save you on money. you can do it with the flexwatt as well. 16 qt tubs will only last the average BP about 8 months if they feed great.

    I usally pick my edging up at lowes/home depot/menards for around 4-5 a roll. The home depot near me just told me that they quit carrying it though.
