start with a frame from Wayne (WRK21)

use liquid nails to add side panels, skirts and outer door frame

add the doors

get the steel stand first. on my stands i have adjustable feet to accomadate any uneven surfaces.

my wooden enclosing is all screwed on. the top skirt around the base of the tank is removable so if i have to i can remove the tank. the bottom skirt is also removable so i can get top the feet, and because my sump is on a trolly and can be rolled out for any maintenance.

it takes a bit of work , but will be worth it when i eventiually finish it.

when finished it will be stained heritage teak, with dark bronze type hinges and knobs, doors will be woden with smoked glass inserts.
