Not the type of rack were talking about.Originally Posted by Argentra
Build a plastic rack?? The only build that is really needed is assembly and possible cutting down of legs.
I have two plastic racks made from utility shelving units; one from Lowes and the other a group of them from WallyWorld. The longer unit is shown here:
The short length units are being altered to make a hatchling rack and I don't have pix yet. Basically, tho, I took four units (a unit is four shelves) and am cutting the 15" legs into 5" lengths, giving me 3" of space between shelves for my corn hatchling boxes. There are 12 shelves total with a storage area underneath and each shelf is 21"x14" and holds 3 'sandwich' size boxes. In the future, I plan to make another unit, not quite as high but with 7" of space, for BP hatchlings.
I guess what I'm trying to say in all this rambling, is that buying those storage units and cutting the legs to whatever height you wish (I use a PVC pipe cutter) is ALOT cheaper than getting the PVC board and such.
