Well I tought I would post a pic of the rubbermaid rack I made a few months ago. The rack is in 4 sections (easier to move but need more heat wires). Hard part was getting the 2 upper parts on top of the others.

Anyhow, here is the pic

Also, I found a pretty cool thing if you are housing baby snakes in a rack like mine (one where you do not put the lid on the rubbermaids).

If you use the sterilite tub and put a rubbermaid cover on it, it still fits in the rack and the snakes can't escape!!! :-)

I am not sure where this pic would go, but since I put it up at the same time as the rack, I will post it here.

Here is a giant poster (well more like a huge commercial board for a slush) I put up in my reptile room.

I forgot to mention that the total cost for the rack system was about 200 for the wood (had it cut at the store, cause the sheets do not fit in a focus ;-) ). And it cost about 100 to 120$ for the heat wire and 90$ for the 2 thermostats. So total of around 410$ without calculating the rubbermaids.

Nice job! I line the back of by racks with 2" styro. Keeps the heat on the herps and doesn't heat the walls.
