Need to repair 6' tank stand

Recommended Posts

I have a beautiful Maple tank stand that has sustained some damage. It was left in a garage over the winter and the movers had put 8 bags (50lbs each!!) of gravel inside. Unfortunately I didn't notice that they had done that until it was too late. Anyhow, the inside bottom has been bowed and a door has come off as a result with another door needing repair also. What I was wondering is if anyone in the Wellington area knows of anyone who could possibly fix this. The bow and the doors seem to be all that's wrong, the rest looks sound, but I'd like someone who knows what they're doing when it comes to tank stands for obvious reasons. I'd hate to have to throw it away as it was very expensive, but in worst case scenario I do still have a metal frame stand for the tank too.

There are plenty of furniture restorers in Wellington. I don't think it is that important for them to know about tank stands, all they have to do repair it to the same standard or better than what it was. Different story if they were building from new but copying or repairing is easy.
