That looks awesome! If you don't mind me asking how much roughly did it cost to make?

I know Nick i was messed up cryingwithlaughter

30ft of 4" heat tape - $60
a bundle of 1x2x8's (15 of them i think) about $20
a power plug per heat tape length $5 (i used 4 of them)
3 1x12x8's (don't know the price, had them in my shed)
1 box of 1 5/8 drywall screws $13
1 box of 2" drywall screws $13
1 7qt tub from Walmart $2 (i have 20 in my rack)
1 Thermostat (VE-200 is enough for a hatchling rack, you don't need a temp drop for hatchlings and you can plug more than just this rack to it) $115

30ft of heat tape is enough for me to build a juvenile rack with 16 tubs as well. The screws last at least for 2 or 3 racks, the 1x2's would last for at least 2 more of these racks and then again, you could plug 2 or even 3 of these racks to the VE-200 without a problem. i already bought the tubs over time everytime i went to Walmart i bought 5 of them. They only cost 2 bucks a piece so that's good news..
