Buy some ars bins at $17 a piece. You say you have 5 balls right? Thats $85. Draw up some plans with a tape measure and a note book that will fit the ars bins. Leave about 1-2 millimeters so the bins can slide nicely. Go to home depot....not lows or menards. Buy about 7-8 pieces of 23'X48' melamine at $11.41 a piece for the shelves, and probably 2 pieces of 49'X97' at $33.72 a piece for the outsides, and have them do all the cutting of the melamine for you. Rent one of their trucks to get it home. Screw it all together with a screw gun.

Your looking at 91.82 67.44 85 the 10 cents a cut (rip) the rental=about $300
You could buy a 10 bin rack from ars caging for $995
or you can build your own 10 bin rack for about $500-600
Weigh it. I am torn about having that heavy melamine in the house and doing all that work to build it or just spent the extra dough.
Good luck with what ever you decide.
