    Arrow Project #2 - time4mercy's stand

    Time for my next project. This stand is for a 33 gallon long. It will be completely open inside, allowing lots of room for equipment and storage. I will be getting started on it this week. Let me know what you think.

    LOL, no. It will be black. Blue is just the colour I use in the design program.

    Whee!

    Everybody keep your fingers crossed for the tank - my first choice is a 40 gal long (same footprint as the 33 long, but taller). . . however they are *rather* hard to come by.

    This will be my replacement setup (for the giant 90 gal bowfront). So excited!

    I think it's going to be another AWESOME hand-made stand, Daniel!!! Looking forward to seeing the progress.

    Got the frame started last night. I am doing a 2x4 frame that will be enclosed. It is overkill for the size tank that it will be holding but the footprint is the same as a 55g, and BTS can hit at any time Plus, I prefer to overbuild anyways. No picture yet, but I will post one as soon as I have the full frame assembled.

    Finally got back into my shop and was able to complete the framing on this stand. No pictures as I forgot to snap them, but it is moving along again.
