Laughing I'm not capable of stopping Paul with anything, I'm naturally hyperactive, although I think the coffee has a lot to do with that these days, but I get bored if I'm not doing something Very Happy

It actually wasn't that expensive, probably around about 1200 to 1500 all in, but well worth it. Not counting the RUBS though Very Happy

That might not be expensive to you but it is to me Laughing

Laughing I was thinking compared to Vision racks that would hold the same quantity of snakes it wasn't that expensive Very Happy But I get your point Very Happy These are only temporary as we will move over to Visions some time in the next 2 years or so, and they have to be easier to install the heating into than this rack was, and I've only done half of it so far, I got claustrophobic half way through and gave up for a while!! Laughing N amyae is not something I'm famaliar with? But I'll assume they are rather nice Very Happy

Thanks Karen & Royalpython, I'm just glad the snakes seem to like it, I was a little worried they wouldn't Very Happy How are your little ones Karen?

What materials did you use? £1200 - £1500 sounds a lot for a homemade rack, especially excluding tubs Confused

I didn't make it personally so had to pay the guy to build it, and it also required the use fo the extra wide conti board, not the standard size you can get in B&Q, as the 50L Rubs are long, and as it was going to be lidless I didn't want to have to worry about escapes. That did include all the pulse stats, extensions heat mats etc, and probably some of the rubs, I gave up counting the pennies after a while Laughing I just wanted it to be safe and comfy for the snakes Very Happy
