hi

i have been working with really usefull boxes in sorting out a hatchling rack. this is gonna be a wooden cabinet style on wheels.

will comprise of 3 bays each holding 6x4ltr rubs (so 18 rubs in total!) they have built a prototype for me and hopefully will have this by end of week.

i am hoping with the new slats cut in I can interchange wit 9ltr rubs too holding a total of 9 of these. ( will find out when i have it!)

i will be running heat cable at the back of the cabinet mounting on heat reflective tape.

will find out price hopefully tomor as was on phone to the MD of the company this evening, they are possibly looking at making a run of these if the popularity is there?

these will be a cheaper way to house hatchlings if, like me, not the DIY type.

will post pic once i have the product, u can remove the wheels too so can stack on top of each other.

would be nice to see an interest so can go back to them, obviously price is the biggest factor. these also will come pre built to u, so just need to fit ya own heating. (be it mat or cable!)

Any chance of asking them about a 50 and 33lt rack?
I'm sure there would be a lot of demand for the adult sized RUB's especially with small breeders.

not possible as i used existing products they use for these storage units, can be seen on there site and just asked for modifications!

pics will follow on monday when mine is due.

yes price includes delivery and come fully assembled so just need heating added.

heating is an your own expense, a 12mtr 100w heat cable and pulse stat is wat i will using.

its more for the lazy non DIY people like me, haven't the patience!
me + a hammer = damage!

i will then sort heating out on mine in the week once heat cable arrives. should'nt take long to fit, and post further pics

this can be good as on wheels too or can remove wheels and stack!
