Are you guy's using the macro feature? , The double stack is because I am going to cut 8-10 inches out of the top rail to have better access to the bulk heads, this side (Double) will be the back of the tank and there will not be any center support. The front will and the sides will have cross members, I painted the welds so they won't rust until I can Hurculine it. Tomorrow will be the angle supports!

I remember somewhere he said that he won't because it cost too much. Make sure you give me the $ at the next meeting..
Today I actually had to go and work for half the day and didn't get to work much on the stand but you can see how the supports look so far, the center support and one side support. The other side will angled oposite of the first, then there will be supports starting from the center support to the outside edges. I will have two cross bars to help support the bottom of the tank.
When the Stand is complete I will cut a peice of 3/4" plywood for the tank to sit on, it will be polyurethaned to prevent moisture from getting to it, next I will buy a 1/2" urethane foam to be placed between the tank and the plywood just incase I didn't build the stand right ( Yea right).
Tomorrow I will finish the welding of the supports and I will weld a bunch of tabs and drill holes in them for the outside ply to be attached when it comes time to enclose it inside my home.
