Any metal workers/welders out there?

Need to frame up something to hang my lights on. No experience with this and no place or equipment to do it anyway. Any help is appreciated.

I've seen a lot of them made from pvc. All you need is a saw.

I made mine from extruded aluminum.  It has rails on all for slides and is easy to work with.  You just cut to length and bolt together I can post pictures of mine if you like

Sounds good, send the pics and where did you purchase it at?

Lowes has a pretty good selection of flat stock and square tube aluminum. We made some light racks out of it for our frag tank. Cut it , drill it, bolt it and then paint it. I have seen some nice ones. Big toms is one of them.

Is yours mounted to the canopy or the tank? I don't have a canopy and am looking for something I can fasten to the stand or set directly on the tank. Thanks for the pics and input.

Mine sits directly on the tank.  I live in Monroe and if you want to come see it you are welcome to.
