Hi !
I have been having a streak of bad luck (second time no job I know it sucks for a lot of people) but keep myself busy.
I posted a tank for sale on CL, a 90RR, just the tank since I need to come up with rent money.
Someone e-mailed me about the tank but offered to buy the tank and stand and since it was a week before end of the month why not?
A nice girl/lady showed up to look at the stand/tank but the stand was too high (36") I thought she was to pass on the deal but then she wondered if I could make a shorter stand for the same $$ to that I accepted.
I have built some stands in the past but I think this is my best work yet.
It has been a few days, less than a week and painting it is all there is left so I thought to share the DIY with you guys before it goes to it's new home.
It's structural 2x4 with 3/4" cabinet quality plywood all around, glue and screws pocket holed from a cheap HD kit.
Here is the stand with temporary hinged and knobs, the actual hinges are European type and the knobs I have not seen yet, she's supposed to bring them any time.
