So I have been unhappy with what my fish tank has been sitting on for a while now (an old TV stand). After getting ideas and doing research, I came up with a design. I am basing it on the modern-looking ADA stands that I like so much. I then drew the design out on paper and then created it in Google SketchUp. I attached the images I came up with.
After actually being able to look at a 3D rendering of the stand, I am unhappy with how bulky the frame is. I am also unhappy with the awkward shape of the bottom shelf. It would be very difficult for me to cut that shape from a piece of wood given my novice woodworking level.
Does anyone have any suggestions for the stand? I want to prevent racking but am I going overboard with bulking things up?
