Post your stands!

I added a 5/8” back ( glued ) to the outside and 5/8” sides to the inside ( glued ). All plywood.
I also reinforced the top with 3/4” plywood inset into the opening and then glued the finish piece on. That is 3/4” edge glued board.

Thanks!

Simple. Kept open because the fuge is also going to be a frag grow out.

pine and maple are alternatives, but they stain much more differently. Pine is the cheaper one, with maple being the middle ground. or you can do what I did; I built the frame out of regular lumber and skinned it with an oak finish, it looks nice and costs way less than building the whole thing out of solid oak. You can check it out on my build thread!
