It looks really good man. How did you make the rails that seperate the two tubs on each level?

Looks good Chris. Any advice on what kind of mesh to use for mice racks that would be small enough for them not to escape but big enough to add the food ontop? I would appriciate a name.

Ok, for the rails I screwed on what looks like floor skirting to your typical beam, worked like a bomb, I really wish I could help with the mesh, it took me forever to find the stuff I'm using, got it from mica.

Sounds good, thanks. As for the mesh, I used 10mm mesh on my rack and I havent had a single escapee so far.
