My DIY Aquarium Stand (pic)

John P. · 09-01-2004, 11:10 PM

Just thought I'd share. I also have a matching canopy that I built for my 26-Gallon "show." I'll post a complete pic of the whole setup soon.

Wow, thats nice. Any plans? I guess you didn't take any pics when you were putting it together?

Nice design, do you make and sell furniture?

John P. · 09-01-2004, 11:46 PM

Thanks for the comments ...

No plans--usually I'm a total documentation freak (as you can see here, but I didn't want to slow down the project at all since I have very little spare time these days. I built it with 4x4s, 2x4s, 7 ply (?) birch plywood, some clear pine, etc. Ton of stuff I threw together.The hardware pulls are from Restoration Hardware.

No, not a furniture maker

--actually an attorney that does sales/business development work for a wireless voice & data provider. I built this because I was tired of being unable to find something that looked more like furniture than an aquarium stand.

Very cool, looks good. Can't wait until the whole thing is setup

Man that's nice!

Do you take custom orders?

John P. · 09-02-2004, 05:44 AM

Everyone has their price!
