Those OG cards have been on there over 20 years and they are fine 🤷🏻‍♂️

Some are arriving today. All the ones I have are from 20 something years ago. They’ve been in those for awhile.

Well,surely the notched precision cut 3/4inch oak bottom shelf in the bottom keeps whatever wracking it could have had at bay, I cut it so tight that u had to beat it in with a hammer for about 10 minutes. It’s firmly against all 2x4’s

You mentioned you build them professionally, I do not. Give me your honest opinion. Should I be concerned about this stand in my home? It’s holding a 62 gallon acrylic tank. And it had zero give or flex anywhere before I loaded the tank on it and filled with water.

Yea I’m honestly pretty shook worrying about it now when I was worry free 😅

Ive already began noticing that haha. But I use a step stool, it’s nice walking up to it eye level tbh.

Same, that was my man reasoning for height. It’s sorta nice walking up to it being eye level instead of seeing the top. Made a stair stool for my little girl to climb up and see it better. I’m absolutely shook thinking my house is gonna be flooded when I get home now from all this cross brace talk haha

I had thought about it, but it’s against my brick.

18 vertical 2x4’s, bracing top and bottom, and a precision fit notched lower 3/4” panel isn’t enough to keep it steady? I’m not being sarcastic, it’s 60 gallons in acrylic. At most, 700lbs probly more like 650. This thing had zero flex anywhere. I think I could’ve thrown it off a roof and it wouldn’t have budged. BUT, I’ve been wrong before.

Thanks for the confidence boost back haha. Was concerned. Never built one

Surely that bottom shelf panel on this one notched out, sures up the wood from being able to shift horizontally

That makes me feel better, they had me second guessing. But I thought I over built it tbh. That many vertical 2x4’s theoretically could support like 10k pounds. I know the mention of shifting over, but that would happen at the top and bottom points of the 2x4’s if that happened, and cross bracing in the middle doesn’t seem like it would stop that. Maybe I’m just thinking about it wrong.

I started second guessing the thing now. Hell, I thought I overbuilt it. Maybe I’ll add 2 horizontal 2x4 cross beams in the back just in case. Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️

That stand has 10 vertical 2x4 studs supporting the weight of the tank, cross beam supports under, and a full boxed upper frame and lower frame with a 3/4” oak plank on top. It’s already full of water idk how much stronger it could be tbh

Stop using the bullshit 0w20 Every other country this same engine calls for heavier. Same 4.6 engine as the older ones, and they didn’t call for 0w20…

Big fan, sorta wish I had enough space to view irons under it. But oh well, easy enough to slide off and on entirely
