That's so nice and clean!
You braced around the bottom didn't you? I think I see it. What did you use there? |

i have built a few overflow boxes, and i always take a sheet of acrylic and cut my teeth, then bend it.
or, i cut teeth, and then cut the panels and glue them. (depends on if there is a glass backing. if so, i bend. if not, i glue. its hard to cut teeth when its already bent.

I like the stand as well. How hard was that to DIY? I've been thinking about trying my hand at building one.
