Stand Help?

[jceli728]

Do you guys think I will need a center vertical post in the front and back of this stand? I will really like to keep the front without one.

Stand dimension:

48"x24"
top is 2x6, bottom is 2x4 and corner post are 3 2x4 screw together.

no you don't need a center post.looks good to go.

NO!

Actually, with the stand being four foot, you could have used a 2 x 4 as a top brace.  You are overbuilt right now.  Looks good!

You might want to put one center stretcher between the two top rails...even thought they are 2x6, you could just use 2x4...unless you are going to add a plywood top.

I knew I didn't need the 2x6 on the top but I might do some crown molding and the extra 2" will be nice for that.

Thanks guys...
