Default Weird Stand Idea

Shane, is the next reef club meeting @ your house? [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Steve, I am about to build a stand for my brother's 135g 6' tank. I was planning on using 4x4's in each corner, with 2x6's horizontally, supplemented with 2x4's horiz and 2x4's notched in all round the bottom to diastribute the weight. I was going to sheet it in plywood as Shane suggested. I was thinking of adding 3" angle iron along the top rails, inset into and between the 2x6's and 2x4's, don't know if I will need them tho. Don't want any posts in the middle of the stand. Shane, did your stand have any center posts, or did it span the 6'?
