It is getting boring looking at jinkzd's racks. You people and your basements are not easy to like. Really, all looking good.

Yup, old house with wood floors, my limit is one big tank per room, or two smaller ones on any given wall.

I had actually just finished reading your thread on that....Very Nice!
And yes...we all know that Jinxy has fabulous racks. ;o) Can't beat that welded metal.
So what I'm thinking at the moment, won't be all that big (for now). Just something to house a couple 10s on each shelf and maybe (3) shelves. I'll try and draw up my preliminary thought and see how it goes. I do know that I will be incorporating dado joints, dows and screws for fastening.

Here's mine, small but functional for what I need. 5.5,10, and 20g on top and currently a 55g on the middle shelf. The 55 will be swapped out with a 33 long for better head room access. The bottom has no shelf, but I can easily add one for more tanks if needed.
