    Just yesterday, I built a 60 hole shoebox rack using 1/2" XPVC. I bought it from Laird plastics. They cut it to my dimensions for $100 per sheet. So, a 60 shoebox rack for $300. The only other thing you need is screws, heat tape, and tubs.

    I'll be posting pictures and instructions on my site soon.

    Thanks Shaun (prototypepythons) for the link.
    It is has a list of suppliers for all kind of materials. I found 1/2" sheets of sintra for $75.
    It wouldn't be very hard to do. The cost would be the only problem, but it is still cheaper to build your own out of plastic than to buy.
