I was just curious how do you hold down the rails that you use. Mine have a little lip on them on the edge that you can screw screws through to hold them in place.

I use a really strong double sided tape works great so far (crossing fingers lol )

Lol must be some really strong tape. But great Idea never thought of that being a possibility .

its been almost a year on some of them and it has yet to fail. The other issue I'm worried about in the long run is that i don't think either the tape or the rails are UV protected so what may happen is those rails may start to crack and break but that's something I'll worry about when it happens

Why not use a strong bonding glue or pre drill small holes (so you dont crack the plastic) for smaller nails???

The pre drill and nail method works well with the plastic track, I have a cage I got from anthony @ annapolis bearded dragons and the glued track came loose so I drilled some small holes and used tiny nails and used a small punch to drive them in and it works great.

That's what I was going to say. I have one plastic one I bought awhile back the glue by its self is no good and messy but with the nails works way better. I'm still open to any other ideas though, I like the price of the plastic. The metal rails stay at an avarage of 35 dollars for the set.

I'm just curious why all the photos have been removed from this thread? I was really looking forward to reading through and viewing the nice setups of this thread. Needless to say its a disappointment. Might as well delete the entire thread, it is ruined now.

Considering that this thread is over 4 years old...And there have been changes to the website, and or people with their photobucket...Yeah, things happen.

Guess you should have noticed that this thread was that old before griping about missing pictures and that the thread should be deleted.

I did notice that, thank you very much! I also notice there is numerous people on here (such as yourself) that don't seem to have anything else better to do, then criticize new members when they ask a question on a old thread.

Been reading a lot of old threads, I'm new, just want to learn, that's how I learn.

Since we are critiquing people for complaining about something they are disappointed with. You should try to be more polite, you tend to irriate a lot of new members, that's something else I have learned by reading through old threads.
