I’ve been working on my upgrade plans and want to go with an open concept steel stand, but have never worked with steel before and would love some advice. I’ve got coworkers who are welders by trade so they can assemble, but I’d like to run design by some of you guys first.
The Tank is 36”x20”x16” and the sumo is about the same dimensions. I absolutely love Elders design and would like to mirror it in certain ways:
I’d like to have the stand be really just the four corner legs and not have a center leg. My plan is to center the tank and sump on the stand with an electronics cabinet on one side and a reactor cabinet on the other. What size steel do I need to go with to accomplish this minimalist approach? 1”, 1.5”, 2”, 2”+? What thickness wall would you all recommend?
