ok, found a couple of storage units i like in the argos catalogue and they might work if i coud fit something between them.

But my worry is , if they boxes are cheapo plastic could they warp or even melt with heat cable or mats?

The heat should only be around 30C, even cheap plastic should be fine

For instance;

Polyethylene melts at about 120C.
Polypropylene melts at about 150C.

this is a bit of an ask now..lol

what do i need to make this apart from the wood..
would it need to be screwed together and how would the shelves be supported would it be those little things that you get on cupboards to hold them up? would they hold a royals weight ok?

and anything else i need to know..lol.

could not find anything on ebay and dont have four hundred for a rack..

Hi Danny, thanks for the link, i did look at these before, but i am a bit concerned with them being so open and know what royals are like..

Possibly getting one made, just waiting for the bloke to get back to me;-)

Thanks for the link though...
