Posted by: BrianD at Sun Oct 26 21:03:24 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by BrianD ] I would put it under the back of the bin to provide belly heat for the snake. Idealy the plastic tubs would slide in and out on rails from the top, but this is a lot of work. Or some rack makers make a groove for the tape to sit down in. Now people will say that the plastic on the heat tape will eventually wear out. I have been sliding my tubs in and out on heat tape for a year like 5 times a day and there is no sign of wear. I think you will be fine, just make sure that there is no sharp edges on the bottom of the tuband keep an eye out for wear. Below is a picture of my rack during the building process. I did finish by putting the back board on, but you can see how I weaved the tape through the entire rack and used metal tape to hold the edjes down tight to the tubs could slide over easily. Hope I helped. | ||
