Hi,
I'm still very fresh on this, and recently, a question pop up in my mind.
What is the pros and cons of a metal stand vs a wooden stand? Other than the price, is there really a big different? of course, i know they make of different material ;D and what do your prefer?

Wood Pros:
- Cheaper
- More Attractive
- More Flexible; you can drill holes for plumbing as needed for example
Wood Cons:
- Physically larger for the amount of strength compared to metal
Metal Pros:
- Physically smaller for the amount of strength compared to wood
- Stronger
Metal Cons:
- More expensive
- Less attractive
- Less flexible if you need to modify
really? I always thought wood stand is more expensive compare to metal.... :o
Well, if you're comparing a fully decorative wood stand to a simple metal frame, then yes the wood is more expensive. I guess I was talking about making one yourself.
