DIY 41qt Rack build (WARNING! very pic heavy)

[whispersinmyhead]

Great build! I agree, I learn every time someone posts a tutorial. I Pam on doing pretty much the same rack minus the storage and a bit taller for more tubs. I assume that is 11"flexwatt how are you keeping your temps? What is the ambient temp in the room? And lastly, are you using the flexwatt to heat the cage or as a hotspot?

Ambients in the room are 72-73. This gives me about 78-80 on cool sides with the lowest bin 77. Warm spots are 89-93. The warm side ambients are better of course. I must admit the big challenge is maintaining the ambient temps. I will have to use an oil filled heater during cooler months if the temps dip. I wish I could have a reptile room but that just isn't possible for me.

I used 12" THG heat tape for belly heat.

It is quite heavy. That is why I wanted locking casters. Two of us had no problem lifting it up a set of stairs accept for grip. I should have added handles.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.
