This weekend I spent it building a stand for my 450 8x4x2. It should be coming this following Monday. Hopefully everything goes well and I should have it up and running by the end of next week. My wet/dry is 4x2x2.

I would have put verticals in the corners to prevent wobble and shearing. It would be more stable if the weight on the verticals were spread out as far apart as possible (the corners). $0.02

Sure, if school doesn't get in the way. haha

I still plan on putting triangles on each corner. I bought metal ones, but they were to small. So I have to exchange them for bigger ones.
