This is a great guide. I've had to quickly make 2 bin cages this past November as I brought my hams with me to visit my parents for 2 weeks, and would like to highly recommend this
Amazon.com: Stanley 6-Inch Jab Saw or any mini hand-held saws for cutting the thick plastics. After I drilled a starter hole, I was able to cut the bin cover very easily and cleanly with it, with very little resistance. It's probably a bit safer than soldering iron, but I understand people work with what they have.
