for a beardie of that size, try 12 or 14 inch squares.
don't use 1/4" ply, just use the thin wood paneling. i get it at Home Depot, just interior paneling, the thinnest, cheapest stuff they have (that is wood), it runs about $6 a sheet. they can even cut the squares for you right there...
use a hole saw to cut the holes, make them at different spots in the square, so they don't just line up in the center. but they are not necessary, the animal can get up and around them fine without it, although i like to have them there.
use enough stacks so that the top of the stack is a nice high basking temp, say 140 or so. that would be with a 45-90 watt halogen bulb too, not some 150 watt reptile monster bulb.
