Thats probably to big for any rack that you would want to build. You would have the same amount of money in the wood as you would if you bought one on the internet that was already wired up with heat and what not....

I wouldn't go much bigger than a 41qt. That's only if you have adult females. An adult male can be in a 32qt with out a problem. I have my adult in a 27qt. The smaller ones are in a 27qt with two hides until they out grow it and then I'll just remove the hides...

Well Im Looking At it This Way, Im Sure They Wont Mind The Extra Space To Slither Around In And I Wouldn't mind Building it....I Might Go Wood This Time Around But My Next Rack Would Be Stainless Steel Something nice to look At If You Know What i Mean.

Price of Production Is Cheap Because I know A Construction Contractor That i Used To Work For That Will Get My Supplies (wood, Steel, Aluminum, Ect) And Has Always Had A Open Shop For Me.

But Now You Got Me Thinking Ryan......Instead Of Building One Ten Slot Rack I Could Build Two With The 42?? Hmm.....
