Re: How are you securing your tubs in your rack?
I don't secure my tubs, but I have seen people screw a little loop (to me they look like the straps for air lines, but I don't know what their actually for) on the edge of their racks then drop a nail through it to prevent the tubs from coming out.
It takes quite the feat for a snake to push a tub out of a rack tho.

Mine are pretty snug in the rack, the only way they have gotten out is someone not pushing tub in far enough

If you look around on here many ways to do it, I personally use a PCV pipe with two half circles on the top and bottom of my rack. Ralph davis videos shows his racks its pretty much the same thing he does but i use PVC he uses metal. Hope this helps
