Stand Question

[bart84]

I need some opinions on a stand construction. The tank is 7"x2.5"x1". My concern is the span in the front. There is a double 2x6 sistered together and lap jointed to the legs( i am missing the 2x6 in the front corners ) but they will be installed tomorrow. What do you guys think, will it be stong enough for that tank.

Ok, that makes me feel better if you think so. I am just paranoid.

you skinning it with hinged doors or magnetic panels

 

[bart84]

Probably mag panels. Easier on space.

well you saw how well they worked on mine and if your using the thin sheathing instead of plywood the small rare earth magnets would be fine i worried and got the 1/4" but 1/8" would have been suffice.... got my stand on the inside painted in rubber now too looks like an operating roomall clean and white in there lol

Yer good bro. I'd throw a couple more in the bottom just to support the plywood floor better.
