Got my new tank stand finished today for my new 4x2x2 display tank, took about a day to get it knocked up ready to put a clear over the timber, which ended up gettin two coats today. Just made up a basic frame, rebated some 68x19 meranti for the miniorb to slip into, made the door up just by 1/2 checking each piece together, wacked it all together and this is the end result that im more than happy with, let us know what you think, credit must go to the missus who put the first coat of clear on.

probably not but i haven't seen any others like it, this is the second tank stand i've done like this, the first was my 6ft stand, changed the way i made the door on this one and changed the hinges to self closing cabinet hinges.
 
bro, i have to see these with tank set ups on em.

sure did mate, that was between a few trips back to the hardware store and moving in and outta the rain as there were a few showers around. didnt put the clear finish on the meranti until today though, but everything else was finished.
