I love your idea to have 2 off-set cabinets off to the side of your main tank stand...but attached! I'm about to start building my stand for a 75g tank. You wouldn't happen to have the layout/plans for this stand?

I kinda just winged it to be honest. I do have a build thread that I abandoned on "another forum" though lol

Did you torch the wood?

 

[Idoc]

Very nice setup! That wood coloration is really eye-catching!

My stand. From recycled furniture and timber

The recycled wood look is very fashionable right now!

 

[Lariat]

Yes I burnt the pallets then stained/polyed them

Looks great!
I can remember helping my dad in his shop back in the '70s/'80s making custom rustic furniture pieces. He would let us kids use hammers, chisels, chains and anything we could use to beat up the wood before he took a torch and burned the wood to make it look old. Good times!
