Rat rack lumber

In my opinion using 3/4 plywood (quality) is the best choice. I purchased 2 sheets of 3/4 birch 7 or 8 ply for 28.00 each. Was able to rip down in 1 1/2 pieces. Was able to make two six tub ASF rack with those two sheets. Worked great and never had to worry about strait lumber. I will post some pictures when I'm able.

Please post some photos. I would love to see what a rack made completely out of 3/4 inch plywood looks like.

Did we ever see photos of the 3/4 inch plywood rack? I really want to see it.

I'd like to see pics as well. Sounds interesting.

Grits:

What size wood did you use? I can't tell from the photo. Is yours made out of plywood?

Thanks, John

Mine is entirely out of 3/4" plywood. Owning a cabinet shop I just use drop offs from my other jobs. All I really pay for is the tubs, screen, and water system.

How do you attach the screen to the frame?
