Stands for Aquarium

GP · Jul 7, 2004

I want to see some hand built stands from your aquariums, to get an idea for my 60 gallon in 6 months.

Well, I CAN'T post a picture of any stands for you,
but I CAN tell you that you may find what you're looking for in the DIY forum!!

This is a picture of my stand before I made structural reinforcing and varnishing (sealant). Hope it helps you. It's a pine (oak) cabinet stand, cost around 200 CAD.

Theres a stand chooklet mad herself, for her 75 gallon tank. I think she may even have pictures of the whole building process somewhere...

Ok... heres mine... It's nothing special, but it works for me
(sorry for the messy inside)

GP · Jul 9, 2004

Very nice. Did any of you make your own? Easy/hard?

Jen · Jul 9, 2004

I build that with the help of my dad... it was very easy and took maybe an hour and a half to build, and a day to do all the staining so that it matched all the other furniture in the room

Here's a pic of the stand & hood I built last February for my 65 gallon. Used the garf plans to build the frame, & skinned it with finished one side plywood, had no plans for the hood, so just had to wing it.

Check out http

/www.garf.org/tank/buildstand.asp for a cool program for building the frame.

my friend builds stands (1$ a gallon i think so a 60G with cabnets would be like 60$) just to let you know... im sure you want to DIY it makes it... i dont know... like if a friend comes over... you can say you build that...

I have 3 different stands that I built on my Woodworking page.

Here's one of the 3 that I uploaded earlier this year.
