    Your awesome bro. I just happened to have a few pieces of 2x4's laying around and 3"screws. So I went with your dimensions for your cuts and it worked out great. Thank you so much for posting and explaining what was needed for the build.

    Thank you for making this video. I ended up building one a few days ago, using four 36”,six 15”, four 24” and four 17” pieces.I haven’t mated the 17” pieces in yet but they matched up well. I’ve never really worked much with wood so this was a nice starting project. Spent 16 dollars and used old/extra screws. When I upgrade tanks in a year or 2 I’ll be making a new one.

While I have you here, clamp your miter saw down to the horses, or attach it to some sort of a wood base if you frequently use it on the horses. I'd hate for something to go wrong while you're operating it. I'm not trying to bicker at you I just freaked out a little bit watching you run that thing on them horses 😂 much love man 🤘 the stand looks pretty darn good
