got quoted 1500. which initially took me back, but i have to take into consideration all the detail work and crown molding. plus the stand would have side access panels for sump removal (hopefully i never have to do that, but nice to know i can) one of which would have an electronics bay, separating everything electrical from the sump area and keeping things tidy and a hydraulic assist front hatch.. s0 essentially id get something that will last for a long time and its exactly what i want

So I am going through with getting new furniture made. I feel the detail alone in the stand will make the cost well worth it.
In the left pillar I will be able to hide the Co2 tank for my calcium reactor, on the right pillar all the electronics will be hidden in there to prevent any water coming in contact with them. both sides and the front will be removable for easy access
Hood will be hinged like so...
