Thanks. I think the Melamine cost around $40 for a 4x8 sheet, or you can get two 2x8 sheets for around the same price. I bought it at Home Depot, but I don't think Lowes carries it. :confused:
The holes work pretty well at keeping the humidity right. During shed I'll cover them up with a strip of the blue masking tape to bump up the humidity. I used a soldering iron to melt them and I also used a template I made from a 5 Gallon paint stirring stick with holes that I drilled out. Some people have had good luck using a drill on the bins, but I cracked a couple when I tried so I switched to the soldering iron. The soldering iron is kind of a pain because you end up breathing a lot of toxic plastic fumes. :dead:

No, this is the first (and probably last) rack I'll build like this. I built another one that holds the full size 41 qt. Sterilites for my big girl. I might build another one like that, but if my collection grows beyond that I'll probably end up buying the professional racks.

Wow, how did I miss this...No I don't measure my screw holes nor do I use a template for burning holes. These kinds of things are reserved for sociopaths like xdeus and of course Adam :)
