Abstract
We extend the method of Balister, Bollob\'as and Walters for determining rigorous confidence intervals for the critical threshold of two dimensional lattices to three (and higher) dimensional lattices. We describe a method for determining a full confidence interval and apply it to show that the critical threshold for bond percolation on the simple cubic lattice is between 0.2485 and 0.2490 with 99.9999% confidence, and the critical threshold for site percolation on the same lattice is between 0.3110 and 0.3118 with 99.9999% confidence.
