I want to start doing a powerlifting routine, and I want my routine to consist only of the big three. My question is, how many sets of each lift should I do (in the 1-5 rep range) and how would I setup this routine i.e. bench press monday squat tuesday etc.??

Well just remember you need to train using other assistance exercises also...you can't be very successful doing just your comp lifts.
