Disclaimer: I know not what I do. Just making this up as I go along. :dunno: :D
So I got a great deal and picked up this new tank on craigslist and now I needed a stand for it. I never like the height of store-bought stands, you always seem to half to bend over to look in the tank. So I decided to make my own. Here's what I have so far except for the plywood top I added to it after these pics. If you are wondering about doors (i sure have been), I decided I'm going to NOT do bowed doors. They're going to be straight and inset a bit.
I'll post more picks as I do more. I started this project on Sept 12, but the hurricane came through houston and knocked our power out for 17 days, so i just got back into it last weekend. The good thing is I didn't have a tank and livestock to worry about. ;)
So you think it will be strong enough???
