Thank you! A lot of hours put into it! Honestly it's been the favorite part of the build so far. And usually the equipment is the best lol.

Made some good progress today! Cut out and glued a Yoga mat as a vibration dampener on the floor of the stand, Test fitted the tank on the stand to cut the top trim pieces, also got the doors cut down to size and braced so they will not bow... and finally started staining the doors and the final trim pieces for the stand!
