time to put the good ol brain to work and lay off the energy drinks for 2 days while drawing out plans. could you send me the size of tubs and make modle number etc form those racks we were talking about below. im gonna start drawing up plans and what not for that corner cage and corner rack i think im gonna go with that idea just wanna draw it up and see what it looksl ike but need tub sizes to get a good drawing of it otherise wrong sizes screw everythign up. thanks alot oh by the way im lvl 12 now i got the same guy i was talking about last time ordering 2 charcoal corns and another non snake lover buying a baby movin on up

NP, the tubs are Iris CB110, I made my openings 20" wide, 40" deep and 6 1/4" tall. For calculations call the melamine 3/4" thick BUT, old cabinet makers trick, make the sides a few inches longer then you calculate, then nobody will notice or see any stack up of tolerences. Assemble upside down and last piece to cut is the filler at the bottom. Since it's an "L" cage, you'd need to make a "filler box for under the corner.

Think and play with the layout, if you make them like mine where the tub pulls out lengthwise, then there will be some shelf area in front of the boaphile. 16" if you push all to the wall, less if you don't push the boaphile all the way to the wall. Or to make a vertically flush setup, you'll have to pull the tubs sideways (20" deep and fill in the last four inches to support the back edge of the boaphile "L".

Go and buy a couple of the tubs you plan to use to be sure you can get the tubs the rack is designed for. I can get the rubbermaid tubs at my regional home improvement center, but almost nobody else carries rubbermaid.

When I ordered my racks Jeff Ronne asked where I was going to buy Rubbermaid tubs knowing they are somewhat hard to find.
