Default need someone to make me a curved wooden frame!

hey guys,

was hoping i could find a skilled craftsman here to help me build a curved wooden frame for my tank.

heres the details...
i've got a current usa cardiff tank, it has a curved front
looking for someone to make a curved wooden frame kit like that pictured below. i'm looking into getting one ordered in, though i would prefer one a couple inches taller in height.
the stock dimensions are:
21.5" x 21.5" x 2.25"
i'd want one around 6" tall.
dont need the glass top, frame only.

let me know if anyone can help me out!
thanks for looking!

i was thinking wood, and stain it to match the stand...
my only concern is that its gonna get splashed with saltwater which may lead to durability, wear and tear issues.
