I hung a door on each. Definitely build it like it is. That way the weight will be distributed a bit more evenly...

Did mine over the holidays! Love it. They've been tested a couple times and have held up well! Great write up. Thanks to the OP.

Yup. Home depot for the hangers and any place for lag bolts, washers and wood.

Yeah, just looked like the RK tank, thought maybe it was an RK that he had customized the rear end on.
