Nice job. And Home Depot sucks anyway... take that business to Lowes!

Re: Built my new 41 qt rack
Nice! Thanks for the info regarding having the cuts made at HD\Lowes. I'll keep that in mind when I finally decide to make one of these for my larger girls.

Re: Built my new 41 qt rack
Thanks for the compliments! I really like working in the garage and building stuff so making racks is actually pretty fun to me.

I would have made all the cuts myself but fitting an 8 foot by 4 ft piece of melamine was just a bit impossible for my little Lexus sedan haha. Plus they did it for free so might as well. Most of the time the blade will be about 1/8 of an inch, but just make them measure each new piece after each cut and you will be fine. He just marked every line on the board and went to town and thats what throws it off.

Lowes (in my area at least) has 16 x 36 inch melamine shelves. These work great for the 41 quart tubs. So no cutting needed. Just slap on some edge tape and add some legs. BAM! Instant rack. With 48" legs you can have 7 tubs. I still need to add my last one.
