![]() Just build it flat top like mine.
Then add some molding around the front and side's to get the lip look you want.

when a 50 gal is full it weighs over 400 lbs... it aint gonna slip off..!!! i don't put lips or edges on my stands anymore unless i'm trying to hide the plastic tank moulding.. |

![]() put the 2x4's across the top, ontop of the vertical legs for added support. plans look good- with that middle brace/ leg in there i think that stand will have no problems holding the weight of 3 of those tanks

![]() lol normally i paint or sketch. i drew that last night in maybe 5 mins. i redrew it. give me a few mins to re-scan it and i'll post the new pic
![]() ok i have the new one scanned. i saw some base boards at home depot or rona that are rounded. i could even use those so it gives a finished touch to it instead of 2x4s. ![]() ![]()
