Can I make this a 6 qt and a 41 qt all in one?

[YoungTierney]

@LegitReptiles The 6qts would only take up a fraction of a shelves space, and the 41qts would have to slide out of the side of the rack, while any other size smaller tubs would slide out the front. I can be done but i'd just make separate racks to make life easier. Google "Frugal Herpers Snake Rack" its basically this same design but works well for 6 qt tubs.

thats not cheap i could build the same rack for about £50

[YoungTierney]

@yubtubedude Maybe where you come from, but not here in America.

This is really cool. I have a question. Why do you put screws in? Is this just to help keep it together? I plan to run to Home Depot tomorrow and pick up one of these units. I just need somethin' to hold 6 - 28 qt tubs. One unit will hold 8 tubs right?

[YoungTierney]

@SRT80 If you dont put the screws in, the shelves can be lifted up.

[YoungTierney]

@tmcroberts30 Haha! I'm sure everyone will agree that suitably sized plastic tubs are by far the best way to keep most snake species. They are nice and dark, making the animal feel secure, they hold humidity extremely well, lightweight, easy to clean... the list goes on and on. So since your saying I don't care for my animals properly, I will begin buy a bunch of big glass tanks and then wonder why all of my snakes have stuck sheds and die of starvation because they are too stressed to eat.

@tmcroberts30 Alright man, I have yet to "lose it" defending myself against idiots like you but I sure am getting close. You clearly don't know anything about keeping reptiles. Quit drinking the Hatorade.

[flyinggeckoprods]

@TheSnakegirl99 a quart is 32 oz and a litre is roughly 33.8 oz A 41 qt sterilite dimensions is the same as a 20 gallon long floor. the 91 qt is exactly the same as a 20 gal long aquarium including wall height and width. hope that helps.I show em both in my vids.

[titsonanigga]

well, that life for a snake looks about lame as fuck

[fivestarreptiles]

finally a well explained tutorial

[TheSnakegirl99]

I live in England and we don't measure boxes and stuff like that by quart. Is a litre the same as a quart? You might not understand because obviously your from the USA. I wanted to build my own snake rack using your technique and getting ideas of you but im not good at maths and i dont really know what a quart is because i am not from where you are from. :)
