Does anyone have experience with designing/building/using 80/20 or T-slot aluminum extrusion stands for tanks? I am thinking of going this way for a 40g breeder .... Input would be greatly appreciated as would design ideas.

thanks. Yea I would never cover that up. Too good to hide behind doors . lol But as for your build. You can use the 45x45 profile with no mid legs but 2 or 3 centre cross bars that go front to back and both on top and bottom. Or you can use 60x60 profile for that better sleep at night. On my stand there are 24 corner brackets. Each bracket holds 650lbs. Just multiply that by 24 lol. So the product is very versatile yet strong. It is expensive but this is much much better.Wow! That's so fresh and so clean.... Great job!
I wouldn't want to cover that up with panels.
How did you attach the white acrylic panel for the sump? I don’t understand that part. I saw you did the sameMy Setup
Here is the way I have constructed my unit. I used the 45x45 profile. The corner brackets hold 650lbs of pressure. There are 24 brackets in this stand
