I used RocketEngineers Thread http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1567110&highlight=stand There is a ton of information in that thread. I went with 2x6's for the top support and 2x4 uprights and for the bottom. I put a piece of 3/4" Plywood on the top and countersunk all screws with exception to the pocket holes. The wood is Pine from a big box store. Take your time while picking out lumber. For the small amount of wood that I bought it took me over an hour to pick it out. The more straight you start with the easier it is to keep it level and square. Good luck with your stand build and post up some pictures when your done.
