    Sterilites from Target are 34 3/4X16 1/2X16
    Rubbermaids from Wal Mart are 29X18X6
    Sterilites 40QT's from Wal Mart are 26 1/8X18 1/4X6 3/8
    Maybe more sizes, but I use the top one myself.

    Use 3/4" melamine.

    There are some rough figures for you.

    If you get the pre cut shelving I would suggest getting the top tubs because the other ones are wider than the wood. Other than the pre cut shelves, you can get 4'X2' pieces of melamine.

    Mine is made out of the pre cut shelving pieces and holds 18 of the 41QT tubs abd 18 of the 15QT tubs.
