32 Tub, 41q Sterilite Rack finally done.... pics

joels417 Jan 03, 2004 08:48 PM

My dad and I designed this to work in the limited amount of space I have. It's a 32 Tub rack, using sterlite 41q tubs.

It took us a day but it went rather well. The part of that rack that is only 6 tubs high, is going to have a 3/4" Plywood or melamine top on it for a counter-top. They all are going to have 4" flexwatt running through the back of the rack with belly heat and the room alone is heated itself.

I am worn out, hope you like.

You aren't lying, that is one UGLY rack. But I don't think you have the room for it in your building Thomas SO, if anybody wants to trade a twin bed for my queen size bed, let me know so I can take this rack off of Joel's hands.

Great work Joel, I have gotta see it in person.

Thanks for sharing your cool rack. Are you using pegboard for the tops of the trays, or drilling the trays? I couldn't quite pick up that detail in the photos. fossil
