After 2 weeks i am finally done with my 3 racks. This is my first time doing something like this. I made 2 41qt 5 tub racks and a 6qt 36 tub hatchling rack from 5 melamine boards. Everything came out perfect on both adult racks except, i purposely left myself a little extra space for the top tub on each adult rack because i intended for them to go on there with the lids on however the lids do not latch on securely enough for my liking. I am using the sterilite 41qt tubs. Does anyone know of any other 41qt or near that tubs with a secure lid??? If not i will weigh them done or mabey bungee it down as ungly as that would look. Anyways sorry for blabbing on here it is i just have to iron on the white strips to hide the wood. Lemme know what you think.

First one is similar to what i am planning to make and yours looks great! Only thing is i would put the brackets on the "top" of the join (unless you had there) so they are not visible.
