    I was just wondering where you guys got your XPVC for your DIY racks and how thick did you go?

    Thanks for posting You gave me an idea so I ran with it.

    I just tracked down a local supplier that is doing 1/2" for $85 a sheet and 1/4" for $50 a sheet and cutting for cheap. I'm going to be putting together a rack out of 1/2" for 14 x 15 or 7 x 32qt tubs and a hatchling rack out of two sheets of 1/4" for 55 x 6 qt tubs! Very cool. I'm spending practically nothing. I just need to snag more Flexwatt and another Herpstat once I start breeding. Saved a ton of money!

    Regards,

    B
