I just got finished (I think) with this stands frame. The dimensions are 42 high x 60 3/4 long x 24 1/2 wide. The reason for it being so high is that its going on a hallway wall and I wanted it to be eye level. I used 4x4's for the legs and 2x4's for the top and bottom, with L brackets for extra support. The tank, when all said and done I figure is going to be 2000lbs.
When I have it in place, I plan on putting on a solid top and finishing the rest of the stand with 1/4 birch.
Can I get some feedback on the frame itself? Will it be strong enough the way I have it now or do I need to beef it up? The frame itself as you see it weighs I'm guessing 150lbs.
Thanks
