and yes...i will have a shelf on the left side and it will be left open on the right side (space for a 5 gal quarantine/hospital)

that looks great so far, we just bought everything for the frame today, and figured we'd build that first before dealing with the plywood/covering.

are you putting doors? if so, where did you find them or did you make them? so far we've only looked at lowes, but couldnt find the cabinet door without the cabinet

also, we want to be able to have a drip loop in the back of the stand, but inside of it, and we dont necessarily want to just cut holes in it, what do you think would be the best way to go about that?

yea...i put two doors on the front. i got them off an old cabinet that was laying around my dad's place. you can easily make them tho...get some 1x3s. cut them to the height of your door opening (a little bit bigger so the hole doesn't show) then lay them side by side flat on the ground. put another 1x3 crossways and affix it to each of the slats by a short screw. attach with hinges. cheap and pretty easy. (on second thought, add a diagonal one too to prevent them from shifting)

for the drip loop, you can mount a power strip on the back center support relatively high up. this should allow the cords to hang below it to create a drip loop.
