The first 3 photo's are of a completed side panel for the stand. A panel was added to the back of the doors to help protect the raised panel door from water and salt spray. These panels have the same rubber coating that is on the stand and they are painted white. The side doors are all the same except for the direction the door swings. There are 2 side panels on each side. There is also 2 covers to protect the hinge assembly when the door is closed attached to the side panel. When I had this running ...

In case some of you are intrested in how I made the outer frames I posted some photos of the devices used. These were made from scrap wood and MDF. I made 2 templates out of MDF. I also made a frame out of wood to help in placing the templates down onto the part that needs the 1/4" pattern cut into it. The top part in the first photo is a section of wood that needs the pattern cut into it. The two parts at the bottom are the actual templates. In the second photo the section has been placed ...

The second photo of the top frame assembly complete(bottom view) shows the router pattern to allow the frame to cover the top of the side panels and back cabinet ...

The first 2 photos are of the diverter used to channel any water spilled at the back of the tank to the stand. The third photo is of the diverter in place without the trim around the top. this view is from the top of the cabinet. The forth photo is from the top with the trim glued in place. The top outer frame assembly also has trim in place to channel the spilled water into this diverter. The last photo is a view from the stand side of the back cabinet. Please excuse it being sideways. I tried ...
