Hi.
I'm not him. But I have made stands and they are pretty much bullet proof.
Just did my three tier stand. Spans 5.5m will take 4 4ft by up to 2ft tanks with about 250cm clearance above the tanks for access. Obviously depending on the height of the tank. Materials worked out about $400-500.
I don't powder coat but can two pack or enamel.
I've not built for others but would be willing to look into it if people were keen.

I ended up wiring this stand with its own 240v power. It has its own air system also.
Just plug in the lead to the stand and then you can connect all accessories to the stand itself and plug in the air hose and whole stand has air piping all round as per most people's single air pump systems.
I will add a pic of the bracing without the board.
I take no chances with the tanks. More steel the better I say.
Cheers
Matt
