Got the stand mostly put together. I'm waiting on a friend to finish the doors and it'll be done. The wood work was harder than i though it would be but i think the stand will hold just fine. No worries.
Decided on a plastic storage bin for a sump. It will hold 22.5 gallons which is a little less than i wanted but i was resticted by space because i didn't make enough room under the stand for the 40g sump when i designed it. But the 22.5g should do just fine. I'm still working out the plumbing and waiting on parts to arrive. I will update as i go along....here's pics of my DIY stand.
