Tongue and groove mahogany top. It's 38x20 to give a full 1" around the tank. Going to do a quarter round trim piece eventually to hide the plastic trim and center it on the stand.

Thanks. No need, it's by far the strongest and straightest piece of furniture in my house next to the stand that came with my tank 
Might be too straight for my 70 year old farm house built with rough cut from the land...

According to Cornell.edu your tripled up 2×4 columns can hold 8,800 lbs each. It's nice to know that your stand could hold an Orca should it be at your lfs. Lol.Thanks. No need, it's by far the strongest and straightest piece of furniture in my house next to the stand that came with my tank

Lift is done! Jeez I'm beat... 42.5" and 43" to the arch in the fenders front and back respectively. Torqued 10 bolts to 200ftlbs, 8 bolts to 150ftlbs, and 32 lug nuts to 150ftlbs.
Oh, and I cooked dinner after working on the truck too so my girlfriend could study for her EMT cert. Teriyaki chicken and fired rice. He mechanics, he cooks, he cleans... I'll make someone a good wife one day. ;Hilarious;Hilarious;Hilarious

Lol, when I'm wasting $7 at Starbucks, quad shot venti white chocolate mocha, no whip, 120 milk.
We (me) always bought a bunch of brownies, etc when we stopped at Starbucks back in the day. Never realized $7 of that $20 bill was a single cup of coffee!!
Nowadays, any random ADC left over from the pot I made at 3pm the day before. :-/ black

Old drink, not on the menu anymore but most of their baristas know how to make it. Called a few different things; marble mocha, black and white, tuxedo mocha...
It's layered when cold, mixes up pretty quick when you get it hot... but its a white and dark chocolate mocha. So good. (Say it like Ralphie May... So good)

I went and bought a trim router and round over bit to finish the doors, but when I got home this happened.
Best naps of my life!!! Postponed many a chore back in the day when my six were that small!!! Cherish those moments!!!

I have not taken naps as an adult before she came into my life. I am definitely enjoying these moments. Btw, I did get out there and finish one panel just to see how it looks.
