Wood working tools and skills are limited, so it's going to have to be basic. The frame part is easy enough, it's the finishing that throws me. My 4 yo current stand still isn't finished.

I hear ya.

When I look at the prices of the standard wood tanks stands you can buy at the LFS, it shocks me. I could build a stand out of extruded aluminum for roughly the same price. It does require some DIY skills and tools but well with the effort IMO.

Good luck with your search!

It's not as complicated as it looks. While it's nice to have a table saw, you could easily build the 2x4 frame using a miter saw. Sides and front including the doors can be made out of plywood, slap on a couple of coats of flat black paint and you're done. The finished product will be way stronger than a store bought stand.

BTW for a stand that's 30" front to back it's nice to make the sides removable so sump maintenance is a bit easier.
