not trying to be a dick, but get a tape measure. Pretty much the same size of a battery.

I would make it to whatever size space that you have and dont go by anyone elses measurements. Everyones needs, wants and likes are different

I would just measure whatever the area is and go from there it's a pretty basic piece to make so definitely a good beginning welding adventure, don't forget to compensate for the thickness of the material when doing measurements to build it.
