Moved into our newly built house, and am getting my tank set back up. Office has a nook that is a perfect fit, if I take out the baseboards on the sides.
Stand is framed. Just test fit in the space. The stand is not quite square.
what kind of tolerances do we have with stands? It’s got a twist to it, ever so slightly. It’s 42” tall (I’m a tall guy). Over that 42” it about 1/4” front to back and not quite 1/8” left to right. Side to side there is quite literally nowhere for it to go, have about 1/16” on each end. Front to back is a different story of course, but I was planning on anchoring it to the studs of the house in the back. Can do heavy lag bolts if it matters.
Asking for trouble? Or am I okay? I can’t imagine any of the other 4 stands I’ve built over the last 15years have been perfectly square, but also have 2 littles running around, so…
