Vernon Saunders Posted April 17, 2018 Author Share Posted April 17, 2018 OK everyone... the frame is finished, and as an added bonus I decided to do a strength test to show its capabilities (and to put my mind at ease). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the bricks works as well. [emoji1] Nice work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernon Saunders Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 Lol little small to fit me under it.... maybe I could fit you if you pulled your knees up to your chest. The "weights" are 4x8x2.5 inch pavers and (according to what I found) they weigh ~5.5lbs each and there are 14 pavers for a total of 77lbs and just for the record there is about 1/4 inch of clearance under the board that they are sitting on and the plywood "table". I can make anyone things out of aluminum for their tanks and feel confident that it will hold up to the stress of the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
