I've tried doing stuff with wood. It's easy to screw up and hard to make it look great. I can't imagine the kind of work that went into this cabinet.
And Kris... you just can't do anything halfway, can you? Mike just told me how spendy the Schedule 80 stuff is. You lay some very expensive pipe, my friend.

Ryan Delivered the stand and canopy tonight. Its really awesome and couldn't be happier with how it turned out. The attention to detail is incredible! The hardware and fit and finish of everything is just amazing. There a couple more trim pieces still needed along the back of the tank but that's it. Those will come later. The color goes with the flooring really well I think while still having its own character.
Ryan added a toe kick to the bottom which I think looks real nice and raises the whole stand and tank to the perfect viewing height. I do need a little step stool to reach all the way into the tank but have no problem reaching the far back bottom of the tank. The sump and skimmer fit great will lots of extra room.
All the plumbing is ordered and hopefully will be here before the weekend so I can start plumbing.

That was all Ryan's planning I can't take any credit there. I am going to do some interesting things with the plumbing though. I'm not going to plumb it as it was intended. I will be using both the bulk heads for a modified beananimal overflow instead of one drain and one return. I ordered two 3/4" Sea Swirls, one for each corner to plumb the returns to as well as to create flow. Since this is a nem tank I didn't want any power heads for one to walk into.
