Time for assembly, first up is attaching the top. I clamped the heck out of it to keep the top from shifting while I screwed in the pocket screws.



Then for the second shelf I stood up the top and sides (upside-down). I cut some spacers to hold the shelves the correct distance apart. Again I used lots of clamps to hold everything just right while I ran in the pocket screws.



Here's how it looked with more shelves installed.




And finally, here they both are assembled and in the snake room. Still have to finish the heat tape and add the back but mostly done. On the left is the back of one rack and starting to thread the heat tape. On the right is the front of the other. When they are done they'll go in the closet woth the hatchling racks.


All in all was pretty easy and I think they came out great. Helped having the right tools.
