>>I know i told you to put a screw in each corner of the pegboard. I had to put more screws down the sides as well. It was a little shakey till i put more screws in the back.

>> I heard different things about the rack you are talking about. If a heavy snakes is in the tubs it can cause the tub to come out of the runners and fall to the next shelf. not a long way to fall but the animal can escape. Keep this in mind when you decide to build.

>>>>>>The plan for 10 slots is 1 single unit not 2 stacked on one another. If there is a problem with it swaying side to side the back needs to be reinforced.Put more screws in the peg board on the side pieces of the rack.

>>>>>> I belive yours was a builders error.LOL

>>>>>>>>I wouldn't stack them 2 high. After using this one, it's a little swayish (is that a word??) It moves a little bit.
