Ok Im starting my DIY stand now!!

[Epic Fabrications]

Its hard to explain because youre dealing with 250 lbs and I'm dealing with 1,300+ lbs.


And we're BASICALLY using the same wood. I've seen 125g stands built with 2x4's and no center supports.

Yeah. Either way, its a great learning experience and we're looking foward to seeing it.

Thanks.
I always thought that the Mclaren F1 was the fastest car ever. And I do know what nitrious is. Im not that lame. haha.

But yea in whole the project is coming together quiet nicely. I have more good news too. Im making a wet/dry with a sump for it too. I got pictures so the wet/dry will be shown in THIS THREAD after the stand is done. So when the stand is done

finish the stand then! lol

Well I have to put the stand sideways now. I bought a 10g for my sump and no matter what ways I turn it the wet/dry wont fit. So the brace that was standing up and down is now left to right. The sump will sit on there. Tomorrow in the morning(around 9 or 10)I will be going to get wood to place over the frame so I can make it look nice now and I can install doors on it. Its coming along quicker then I thought. So Im happy!

Your stand seems to be coming along real well. Hope it lives up to your expectations.
