Actual Height of tubs for CB-70

[Gloryhound]

I am building a CB-70 rack type system. My local Office max does not have the tubs in stock, so we ordered them on line and they will not be here until tomorrow. At Office Max the tubs are listed as 6" Height, but I was wondering if that is including the lid as when I look at the directions from Baileys reptiles he is placing the supports at 7 1/8" apart. If I subtract the thickness of a finish cut 2"X2" (1 1/2" X 1 1/2") from that I get a 5 5/8" opening. So is the actual height of the CB-70 tubs 5 5/8" without the lid or am I missing something?

u dont need to know the height when building your rack,
just the L and W
then set ur tub, i used a piece of pegboard for the gap, then set ur melamine on top and pre drill, then drill it in

That is what I would normally do, but I do not have the tubs yet and will not get them till Monday. I am trying to get the biggest portion of the custom enclosure built this weekend. I have to work during the rest of the week and I would like to have it ready for flexwatt by the time the flexwatt arrives since I think the flexwatt will absorb the better part of an evening while installing it!
