just finished mine today
i pretty much just followed tho 'how to' guide on this forum bud.
i found the easiest way is to decide the size of the rub you want to put in it (they give the external measurements on the website) and then go from there. cd's for spacers was a great tip i picked up on here aswell. its a bit of an epic i thought, especially if youve never routed/built anything like this. but once its done its pretty awsome! |

I really like this!!! Just out of curiosity, do have ply or similar used as shelving in this? And how is your heat cable attached? I really like that am getting very tempted in building a rack. |

The woods like chipboard with silver on the surface don't know where the bloke got it from but I can't find it
Obviously it's sold somewhere it's just I don't know where
It's heated by heat mats so it's good that you don't have to heat all the rubs just the level that's being used |

I'm only running 2 levels at the mo both heat mats are stated to one
I plan on using 2 stats
Top 3 on one and the to bottom levels on one
Then I'll keep checking the rubs before the royals move in and see what the temps are like
If I need another stat I'll use my other one
Gotta have spares ;) of everything |

Bits from here

I paid someone to make that one tho
Not very good with stuff like that lol
Really like the look of this rack mate, any chance you could take a pic of the back and also a shelf without rubs in, I quite fancy having a go at building 1 of these myself =)
This is the rack I made recently, next on the list is a hatchling rack.
