![]() I have a 75 Gal tank that I am building a stand for. I attached a quick picture that I did in paint, because for the life of me I can't figure out how to use sketchup.
What I was planning to do is build the stand deeper (front to back) than my tank is. I was going to sheet the top in plywood and then drill 1" holes and run my plumbing down into the sup below. This way I can have the stand tight against the back wall and most of the plumbing is hidden within the stand. From the picture below: - All joints will be secure with pocket holes and screws. - The tank will set on the portion between the bottom black line and the blue line. - The small section at the top of the picture will be behind the tank and I want to run the plumbing down through there. - The bottom frame will be the same at the top frame. - The frames will have lot of support via 2x4 uprights. - The upper frame will be made of 2x6, the bottom will be 2x4 - Uprights will be 2x4 Is this all fine? |
