Well I finally got around to building my rack. I decided to build it because I'm getting a female Mojave and a female butter here in a few weeks. Its made out of 3/4 inch melamine. I still have to attach the back plate and hook up the flexwatt but I'm not doing that until I'm done with the semester and home for the summer. But here it is! Took about 2 hours to assemble and total cost of the melamine was about 90$.
The shelves are 35" long and 17" wide. Its built to hold 41 qts for my big girls and 28 qts for the new girls I'm getting.
I have it on a comforter so I could move it around easily lol
Here it is with the back plate. Like I said its not attached yet, but I placed it there to show what it would look like.
I used six CDs as spacers. I placed the CDs down, put the tub on top of the CDs, placed the shelf on the tub and screwed the shelf in place. That way when I removed the shelfces the gap from the top of the tub to the top of the shelf was the exact width of a CD.
Well there it is! It was pretty simple to build, and if I can do it anyone can!
Thanks for looking![]()
