We built ours using much the same design, but added a piece of plywood on the bottom. It kinda helps distribute the weight evenly on the floor AND we siliconed the joints and painted it with a couple of coats of marine paint. If we had a leak or overflow it would hold a few gallons of water without soaking the floor.

I really like the electrical box idea. I think I will do that with my own stand! I have been humming and hawing over what to do with the power bars.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
