Help with stand.

I want to make my own stand for my aqua pod so I can make a 10g fuge down below. Don't really know where to start sure I could drill together bit need basic instructions on how to get the wood cut the dimensions and what I need

 

Do I just. Make a box and put on sides and doors paint it with deck paint and leave back open?

 

It is really up to you and how complicated you want to get. The dimensions are really dependent on what size your tank is and how you want to design the stand. I would choose a design that doesn't put any of the weight on the screws.
You should just search "DIY aquarium stand" on Google and you will come up with tons of designs and resources.

You are not limited to a wood stand either. The stand I am working on a plan for is made out of square-tubular steel. Just some estimates now, but I am thinking about 22 ft 1-inch tube steel and about 12ft of 1 inch angle iron would be enough for a 55 gallon. Just some thoughts.

 

my build "IKEA style"))))

may will wave some idea, tank 150gal

 

Here is a guide you can look at. Just base it off the measurements of your tank.
