start of 75 gal stand

[hershey]

well today i started to build the stand for my 75 gal that i got to upgrade from my 33. Initially I was going to use wood for the project but decided to use steel since i already had it from a trailer i was going to build, and since i'am better with steel than wood, and i dont have any tools for wood besides a skill saw i choose the steel. The tubing its self is 1 1/2" x 2" galvanized with a 1/8" wall thickness. I'am going to wrap the steel in 1/2" maple plywood (or what ever's on sale) and also put some leveling legs on it, something like you would find on a clothes washer only heavy duty. So today i cut all my pieces and all thats left to do is weld it up.
