new rack help

hey perhaps someone can please help me out. im trying to build another rack for my breeding ball pythons. i already built one with studs and melamine. its great but its very heavy. for my next one id like to use pvc or azec board. can someone tell me where i can get either of those? they are not materials that seem to be readily available. and also i know that they can be quite costly as well, is there something similar i can use that is more economical and still light weight? any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks

go to lowes and go to the storage isle where they have those plastic shelfs there like 50 bucks u cut them to size or do what u want to do if u need a pic of what im talking about ask and ill get one for u ..

Is this what you're talking about? I made a 41qt rack and a 28qt rack out of plastic shelving from home depot. Works A+ and very cheap

exactly what im talking about

this is how i built the rack i have now. theres a 3/8 of an inch gap between the top of the tub and the bottom of each shelf. do you need the lids on your the tubs? i cant tell from the pic. and also cant the snakes climb through the holes in the shelves if there are no lids?
