Stand building help

[rplank]

I would greatly appreciate some guidance as i am stuck in the planning stage. I want to make a wooden stand (4x4 frame) that will have a 90g on top and a 75 g sump. Footprint is the same on both tanks, and I have to be able to put 75 in after stand is finished. Is it possible to build a stand to hold the weight and have stand frame corners outside the dimensions of the tanks?

Do you have access from one of the sides?

Sorry that would have been good info to give. I will need to put it in from the front if at all possible

Why such a big sump?

 

[rplank]

Because I already have it. It is my dt right now. It will be mostly fuge.

We can talk about it when you come over to pick up your salt. It can be done several different ways.

Wanna make it out of steel ?

 

[rplank]

I wouldn't mind if it cost less, but I doubt that's the case

Not less, but generally not too expensive. Nice thing is the extra room you get to work with. Figure < $200 including powder coat if you help make it with me...

+1 metal stands are fantastic. I wish I would have done one for my 120g. I have one on my 104g.

I was planning on using 4x4 so price probably isn't that much different....I'll pm you
