Have you done any more work on the stand? It's looking good so far, though I don't yet see the vertical support members in place.
Sorry I work some on it today late, I don't give up that easy. thanks for the compliment. ROLF, that's the problem with some folks...he...he.. they get offended over nothing, and I am a constant face washer...lmao It wasn't a hammer or a nail gun, i was using a 2" x 4" and it was a common sense mistake not a brain mistake, mama my mama said stupid is stupid does!

Stand is looking good 34. All you need now is some shear. If I hadn't seen the first digit pic., I'd still wonder if it was a pointer

Looking great! Those 2x4s hold about 10,000lbs each. Two in each corner is overkill already. It's a very well designed stand. That's exactly how I built mine, but I opted to keep the center clear.

A little insurance never hurts none.

Keep the pic's coming after the tank gets dropped on top!
