Where on earth did you get the idea that I intended to item to be anything more than decorative?
The part where you said it needed to support 600lbs
I pretty much stated that I wanted a particular look, and that that was the reason for using it.
No, you did not. You claimed that you didn't want to spend the money on an actual dedicated aquarium stand, and that you were a cheapskate. Your only reference to looks were that you wanted it to "match the rest of the room", which was described as boards laid on top of bankers boxes, and was not cluttery like something taller. You really like the look of low, out of the way furniture.
Oh, and I figured out how to do it, too, should I be so inclined. But it's still impossible, because it is incomprehensible to anyone present that someone might buy a decorative item for the purpose of being decorative.
That is not the stated purpose. The stated purpose is to support 600lbs.
The only possible solution is a pile of cinderblock. Right.
I suspected that you did not care to read my suggestion, now I am sure I was right.
My suggestion involved a support structure made of cinder blocks concealed behind a nice wooden veneer that was not load-bearing. You could have easily added your ikea stuff to the front if you wished.
Do you always tell someone they're clearly imagining words were spoken in the same sentence you state a disinclination to read those words?
You seriously just told me I'm imagining things were said and that you're not going to read the thread to find out. Seriously?
You did not mention what it is that you think people are falsely attributing to you. Why would I read through the thread sentence by sentence to try to guess which ones they are when you won't even elaborate other than a vague claim of misrepresentation?
In actual fact,
you are the one misrepresenting everyone here. You claim that we think you are dumb, which is false. You claim that we find many simple concepts incomprehensible, which is false. You also are misrepresenting yourself by claiming many things in your later posts which do not jive with your OP, and blaming me and other people who tried to help for the confusion.
*expletive deleted*ck that, indeed
