I finished skinning the stand today. Time for paint soon, and I also have to figure out exactly how I will do the doors.

Looks great! I wish my stand wouldve had the door in the endwould be so much nicer, good planning.

use velco for the doors so they can completely come off the stand

Stand looks nice and sturdy. You could also use magnets to hold the doors.

Velcro is a great idea! Thanks! Magnets could also work. I am glad I posted these pics cause I haven't thought of any of those ideas! The side door will be my guinea pig door, I will see what is going to work with that door and repeat it on the front. I put that door in the side to have access to the sump if it needed to come out. I did a lot of planning before and during this build, but funny enough I will probably still miss something that would have been a good idea.

Velcro will start to rip off once it gets hit with saltwater. I used magnets on mine.

I flush mounted the small door tonight. The magnets workd like a charm. I used a roto zip to sink them into the plywood.
I also bought some stainless steel handles.

what happened to the corner of that door

I chewed it off! No I orignially didn't plan on using that piece of wood for the door but I decided to flush mount with magnets. That will be covered by the molding I will be using, if not I have another piece of ply if needed. I drilled holes in each corner to get the jigsaw in. I just went a little farther in on that particular corner.
