Only difference is you fix OTHER peoples crappy work... I had to fix my own.. I'm pretty impressed with myself because I really do suck at wood work, but the trim matches up pretty much perfect on every corner.. The doors will be another story..

If it's any consolation, I suck at wood too. I prefer building with metal

Looking great! Cant wait to see this turn out!

Nice heavy stand too! haha. You dont even need those 4x4's in there. Tank definetly aint fallin over!

PS did you use wood glue in the seams? Wood glue makes stands so much stronger, and helps with tortional strength a bit. Just FYI - for anyone building a stand. (Or PL400 if you happen to have some around :P haha)
