two very IMPORTANT tips

TimS Nov 19, 2009 03:58 PM

when building a rack.

1) WEAR SHOES!!!!!!!!

2) be ever so careful NOT to drop anything.

i am the new proud owner of a bloody black and blue big toe on my left foot

i cant describe the throbbing and pain in my toe omg.

the side piece fell and corner of it just mauled my toe.

lol no not to bad. gouged out skin blood bruising but nothing tooo serious. no stitches or anything needed.

of course making room for new snakes

i only got a 15 slot baby and 6 slot 41qt rack. wanted to see how i like them before i go and get larger amounts and stick out more cash.

lol to add to the fun i just found out that im about 25 screws short to finish making the rack lol. but its ok i just saved a ton of money on my car insurance hahahaha

im glad the babies will be nice and chubby by the time i get them. The spacing in a few areas on baby rack is kinda sketchy

I learned that lesson in my teenage years, changing a flat tire in my socks! Dropped the jack on my toe! Ouch!
