Wow. That is a Great stand design. Probably one of the best I've seen. I'm very impressed. We have some talented weldors here at MonsterFishKeepers.

DANG! Now that is a well stocked shop. Wish I had a biscuit joiner... that would make so many projects I build 100 times easier! Great job, looks great.

Thank you all for the kind reply's.
The cabinet is a bit particular because the tank has to come in a niche, in a corner of the room, between the outer wall and a chimney. This makes it verry difficult to construct the cabinet once the tank is in place. The tank will be all glass and has to be glued together right in place. There for the cabinet is prefabricated, basicly as 5 separated pieces that can be joined together afterwards.
On the picture you can see the place where the tank has to come. Right now there is a 600 L (158 G) tank
