    Rack pics.

    Here are a couple pics of some racks I just finished, the first one holds the sterilite 1960 tubs. Not completly setup yet but as soon as I order my flexwatt it will be.


    Thie is the baby rack (small one) it holds the 6 qt sterilite tubs, holds 12 of them but most are missing, due to "other" needs at the moment. One tub has a gartersnake in it at the moment (found him at my grandparents) EXTREMELY skinny, hes now eating very well and should be released soon.

    Looks good! You might want to polyurethane the plywood rack. A little humidity and its going to warp.

    Cool Racks


    I like them both but especially the lil keeper. That is a great idea for smaller colubrids.

    Good luck with the garter snake too

    Thanks, I was at my grandparents one day and he happened to have an odd long piece of plywood so I just slapped it together, even know I cant build that well it still turned out good.

    It'll prob be ok with lids. I like the idea of sealing it anyway but thats just me. Looks good though!

    Just make sure you let it cure for a few days after sealing before using.

    Aric,
    Looking good. I love to see people build their own stuff, it leaves them with more money to spend on what they are really in it for, SNAKES!
    Good Job,
