Hi have anyone got any advise on building a rack, also what do you recommend to heat it,
I want 4 x70l tubs plus some juvenile rubs.
My only problem is the 70lt rubs got to go length ways, (side on)
Cheers

Only thing that you might not like is the 70l rub will overhang the shelf by about 10cm or so, but this shouldn't cause much of a problem you could use ikeas kompliment tubs which are a perfect fit and can be used lidless as for other size rubs your fine as only the 33l and 50l overhang but this is the cool end anyway

this is mine i have 12l rubs and 50l rubs as you can see the 50l over hang a bit

Just checked the sizes of the wardrobe and the 70l rub would only overhang 30mm
here's the wardrobe frame
http://m.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/art/20121529/

the shelves are about £12 for a pack of 2 so you can fit as many as you want and all fittings come with them and the frame is pre drilled too so its really easy to assemble i added extra screws to hold shelves for more support
