but I like to keep it simple and it helps me reclaim a little bit of floor space in my dining room. :)

I still need to put hides in, add fluorescent strips, and adjust temperatures. And by that time I'll probably think of something I can improve about it. :D I thought about wheels/casters, but once the tubs are removed it's light enough to carry. I might wrap the bottom in plastic to see if that improves the humidity, and if it's favorable I'll add a canopy to the top. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.:)

It does look good! That is exactly how it works. As you use it, you figure out what else you need.

Looking good so far!

I have something sorta along those lines, but mine are for the bigger deeper sheep water tubs. You may want to rethink the coasters. They may come a time when you need to move those tubs once they are all set up. I use mine a lot more then I thought I would. :cool:

What are you going to house in them?

There'll be 2 leopards and 2 sulcatas, all still fairly small. The tubs are smaller than I would like, but I have them outside as much as possible.

Hi Cameron:

That's just great! I really like how neat the wiring is. Good job!

It might behoove you to make some sort of frame-work that you can set on the top of each tub, that just goes around the outside edge, making a lip so they can't climb out.
