What were the doors made out of? Is there molding around them or was that routed? I made a stand for my 120 gal tank. everything is done except the doors! looking for design ideas.

the doors are 1/2" BC plywood, with 1/4" Oak paneling "liquid nailed" on. There is a "stop" style trim also on the door as well.

Excellent! I love seeing how folks get creative and professional. Not to mention save a ton of dough in the process.
