So I need more space to store all the reef tank crap that becomes collected so easily. I want to build a workbench/table over my mixing station. Biggest obstacle I face is being able to easily dump salt into the saltwater bin with a platform built just over the both of my brute bins. I would also need to be able to disconnect and remove the bins from underneath for cleaning. Picture is below. Would appreciate advice with photos if available on how to build what I am looking for.

No photo to show you, but you could piano hinge the back of your workbench top to swing up out of the way when working underneath. Maybe add a catch to hold it in the up position as well.
Not a bad idea at all. I will have to look up on YouTube or something


If anyone has done this or anything else or has some pictures, post away :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:.
