custom canopy

Since I have few carpentry skills, I was considering having a custom canopy built. Any recommendations on good places/sites for custom canopies?

Forgot to mention this canopy is for my new 29g. I plan on installing the PFO parallel reflector, a 175W MH, and 2 VHO supplements.

Have you tried your LFS? Usually they contract with a local canopy/stand maker for aquariums.

You can do a search in this forum for other members that have built custom caps. This forum has been very useful to me in building my project. There are numerous sites that have detailed explanations of how they built their systems and why they choose to do it a certain way.
