Hi gents,
So after asking you guys for some rack builders in the Jhb/Pta aria it became apparent that I would have to tackle this project myself, so into the darkness i went. I decided to build a small rack system to suit my current demand, with the mind that i can expand as i go later. So after reading through the current topics i came across a drawing of a 5 tub system that Kakibos made and it immediately jumped at me. Sufficed to say his plan was simple to read and ever so easy to build big thanks to you Kakibos!
I have decided to make 4 grooves in each shelf to lay heat cable in and just there lays my problem. As far a i can see heat wire comes in pre packed lents, so do you simply start laying the wire at one end and join it when you run out or do you buy 5 cables and wire each shelf separately. I am no electrical expert so i am not sure if option 1 will still give the "heat" as stated on the packaging and as for option 2 all that excess wiring that will be laying behind the cage seems like a fire waiting to happen. Is it possible that someone can supply me perhaps with a photo of how the wiring looks like in the back of their rack system? as for the build i will post pics as soon as i am done with it.
Thanks in advance
