New Racks

Thanks to JWSporty (aka Jim) I was able to get my rack together.
I used 62.5L tubs and the electrical is yet to be installed.

Hey that's actually pretty nice and simple. I need to make something like that along the wall in my room instead of having cages stacked in front of each other all lying around on the floor. Thanks for the idea Around how much did all that cost together?

Classic is there any reason the sides are not tighter to the sides of the tub?

Bryce, I can answer that one. you need the extra space to mount the outlet boxes and dimmers for each shelf. this design uses exoterra heat pads instead of heat tape. Slightly oversized makes it easier to store other items as well. I built the inspiration for this and it works very well.

I see.. .usually people mount the dimmer's on the outside I at least as I have seen. I would rather have the sides tighter but I would also be using heat tape instead of heat pad's.
I thought you made them farther apart so it would be possable to slip in two tubs that were together slightly wider then the one large one. I also wouldnt want to use lid's so Mine would obviously be different. but it looks good Is it getting a coat of paint for prettyness? I am building one soon but I am not sre if I am using heat tape or heat rope yet

Very nice, I'm thinking of building something along those lines, how much did it cost you?
