Hey Jordan!! Thanks for the blue-prints! The materials finally came and my friend was able to build them. One thing that was missing was the part that hooks the faucet to the tubing...what's the name of that part?

Also, we used 2 x 3's instead of 2 x 4's easier to move, lighter. Wink



I am SO thrilled!!! And he's going to build me another one! Very Happy Very Happy I finally found a do it yourselfer!! Very Happy Very Happy It's my birthday and christmas!! Yahoo!

Jordan found it and gave me the link.
http://www.arbreptiles.com/cages/rat_rack/ratrack.shtml

I used 2 x 3s and the attachment that links the faucet to the watering system is not listed..at least I didn't see it, so pay attention to that.

Good Luck! Very Happy
