    It's actually a fold out dog ramp. The girlfriends dogs is a geriatric old guy, so he needs a ramp to get into the bed...

    That's awesome! I knew it was dog-related, but couldn't quite figure it out.

    Why not just use the yellow top storage totes found at most big box stores? These gray ones seem pricey to me and dust can get in much easier.

    It was all about the amount of space I needed to fit under the platform.
    I only had so much height to work with

    Ah gotcha. Makes sense. Wish they made shallower yellow top ones.

    These (Akro-Mils 39085) look like some I had before that were prone to breaking if hit hard enough. Are these the same way?

    As said, I currently use the cardboard boxes that (4) gallons of milk or water come in at the grocery store. About 12 x 12 x 11, and they can be easily cut shorter. BUT ... no lid, so can get dust in them.

    I decided to make this a little stronger than just 3 3/4” uprights. I will have a lot of weight in and on top of the drawers so I added 1 x3/4” strips at every top and bottom corner Glued and nailed. Kind of an I beam effect.
