I have a rack I built just like that, right down to the size of wood and 41qt boxes. The only thing I did was insted of using a solid sheet of wood for the tops on containers I used pegboard. I found pegboard to be $12 for an 8 foot sheet, so it obly took 1.5 sheets to make the entire rack. I dont know how you did your heating, but I used flexwatt heat tape and put it on removable boards in the back... that way if I ever have one that fails or if I am cooling some, but not others, they are all wired individual. I REALLY like this style of rack. I have never had a professional made one, but for the price (about $150) I would say this is the best option for ballpython people. There is also a HUGE advantage to only being one unit wide... its easy to move to another room/building with a cart or hand truck. I have built some racks before that would take a team of horses to move, but these are very light.
