Hey,

One of my guys wanted to start a salt water tank for his kids, and asked me to build him a stand and fix up a 46 gallon tank he had.

I finally got some time today to put the stand together and Thought I'd share some photo's.

Just to let you know the doors are not sanded yet, it will be stained a chrerry the same as my office tank I just did.

P.S: Russ, I did get in contact with my local lumber yard and they do not carry cherry sheets in stock...and sounded like it was going to be alot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ with special order, My Advise, go with oak or birch and stain it cherry...and save the money...Just my opinion

Here's a few pictures of the progress...BUELLER :)

nice! I like the egg-and-dart moulding.

If you're looking for veneer ply, check Manhattanlaminates. they have a LOT of good stuff in stock. (I got my 1/2" maple sheets there) I think they still have free delivery over $200.
