Any ideas dividing sterilite tubs?

stormwulf133 Dec 16, 2008 02:02 PM

Since sterilite changed their tubs, I cant find smaller tubs to fit my racks. Does anyone have any good ideas on how to make removable dividers for 32qt tubs? They must be secure to keep ball pythons separate.

I have read on several forums that the new Sterilites will fit, you just need to remove the latches.

If the latches rest in a recessed area on the box this can be filled in so the boxes remain secure.

Otherwise, any plastic 3/8" or thicker can be cut to fit perfectly inside of a box. They can be held in place temporarily with screws and any silicone or hot glue that will stick to the plastic.

If silicone bonds to the plastic box well then you don't even need the screws. It really depends on the blend of plastic used in the box.
