Plans For A Hexagonal Tank Stand

[5teady_2012]

ok m8, i done all the measurements and this is it, i have not done the doors as thats optional if you want to fit them and can do that easy once this is built..

Anyone feel free to correct any errors i have made

 

[Snooks1!]

Should be about 361.95mm

362 seems about right.



This should work mate, really nice job! Thanks a lot bro, I really do appreciate all of your help.

I'll post some pictures of the thing when I get it built.

Happy to help m8, i just hope all my measurement work out fine

Easy design really and easy to build, good luck, keep us posted on the finish of the stand

 

[Lateral Line]

If the plan is for a simple "H" shape with 2 vertical pieces and one horizontal, then I don't think tha is a good design. I think it will be prone to shearing with rotation around the horizontal/vertical joints..

If you plan to put a full sheet across the back for example, then that won't happen. I definitely think you should do something to prevent a shear failure.
