Idea/plans for 90 gallon stand

Hello,

I'm getting back into the hobby after a long time away. I am looking to build my own stand. I have built other furniture, so I know what I am doing. I would like to build something other than a box with doors. I'm worried about the weight and collapse. Has anyone built a custom stand? Any pictures or plans to share?

Thanks!
 
This is pretty much your standard DIY structural portion (not my picture). Load is vertically supported (meaning no screws are bearing load) and directed to the floor, "L" shape corner posts for lateral stability. Use your furniture skills to skin it, add drawers/doors to your liking.

It's not done yet, but I built this for my 75g. It's very spacious, will hold a bit of water of the sump or plumbing leaks, and has a place to mount my controller goodies.
