Going to Start breeding

[MitsuMike]

The only tools that you need to build a rack are as follows:

1 power drill w/ a counter sink bit and a phillips head bit
1 staple gun w/ staples
1 90 degree corner clip
1 pair tin snips

That is ALL you need to build a rack. Just get the wood cut at Home Depot when you buy it.

You will be WAAAAAY better off in the long run.

I know how to build a rack but the problem is the wood cutting. All the HD's or Lowe's around here won't do "projects" and when they do try and cut the wood it's at an angle.
I might just go home for a bit and do some building but that won't be for awhile. But once I do a new snake, leo and rat rack will be in the making.

Thanks though. I'm just goin to do 1 tub for right now and see how it goes.

Now that I have my tub I am wondering about rat size.
I was thinking about getting the females at the medium to large size so around 80-100 grams
And then the male would be the same.

what's a 90 degree corner clip?

I think he's referring to a corner clamp? It holds the wood in place at a perfect right angle while you screw it together so that your finished result comes out square.

Here is a photo of some in use:
