Jaws,
You probably want to have something built more locally to you but if you are planning on being in Alberta my father in law does really excellent work. He is a cabinet maker by trade and he made the stand you see in my gallery. (he didn't intend it to be a tank stand but I cut through the top of it for my overflow

). He also made the canopy and canopy stand for my lights to my specifications.
He charges 2X the cost of material. Ie, if the wood cost $200 then he charges $200 for his labour - it seems like a pretty reasonable price but I can check and see if there's a canreef-member discount; however, it probably wont be as good as the guy-who-married-his-daughter discount

.
Just an option,
- Chad
