What do you do to your stand for tanks with corner over flow? Do you guys chop off the entire back corners on both end of the stand? Can someone with corner overflow post a pic?

For anyone out there who has a tank with corner overflows and built their own stand, how did you construct the rear corners of the stand to allow easy access to bulkhead fittings? I want to make sure that I make the bulkhead fittings easy to access without compromising the strength of the stand. Any ideas or even better pictures?

Drill a hole big enough for the PVC to fit through.

We made holes in the top of the stand for the bulkheads and pipes coming out/entering the overflow boxes.

Wouldit be better if I drill 3x the bulk head size so I can get my tank in there to tighten the bulk head?
