@500bmw1 way ahead of you, got tired of putting weight on , put like 800+lbs and it was still solid.

Your obviously not a carpenter. 

[mrzonkedman]

@cichlid62 darn right i made it up as i went along, came out great and does want i need it to.

i made one like that. its a little wobbly cuz some of the wood wasnt cut perfectly but 6 3ft pressure treated 2x4s should be enough to support the weight of a 40 gallon long tank

@jptzy neither is mine but its my first and i think it makes it awesome besides who looks at the stand. if you need some tips for your aquarium look at dustins fish tank

[djbigangus]

what if the floor is not level. then it defeats the purpose of using that. plus if you are building a bench i would use a full size level instead of a torpedo

hopefully this will help you out for future stands!

peace
