[justdoit9299]

Hi, did you use cap moulding around the edges of the plywood and the corners of the stand where the plywood meet? If not, what type of moulding or trim did you use and did you use a finish nailer or glue to connect it to the plywood? Thanks!

[PTranProduction]

@justdoit9299

no cap moulding was used. All hardwood trims were used and applied flushed at the top and 45 degree cut to meet at corners. All trims were nailed to plywood with finish nail gun.

thanks!

[Sloviper]

Hi i love the stand, could you please send me the plan on cernov.danijel@gmail.com

much appreciate

[crazykyle401]

hello.. tht is an amazing stand!!!!!!!! im just wondering about how much is the cost excluding the stain and screws and wood glue you used to put the stand together.. also is ur tank 60in by 18in by 26in??

[PTranProduction]

@crazykyle401

As I have replied to others, the total material cost was about $300 CAD. So if you just roughly exclude the cost of screws, stain (NO WOOD GLUE USED) of $70, there you would have about $200 for the cost of woods. Note finish pine lumbers were used in this project; the cost would be less if regular 2x4 framing lumbers were used.

The tank dimension is: Top Dim: 6' (70') x 18"; Height: Approx. 30"

Happy New Year!

[landonsayyes]

Thanks for your comment.

Good luck on your project!

[guicegyrl]

Great stand! I'm on a quest to build my own stand for my 72 gallon bowfront aquarium. Keep in mind that I'm a woodworking virgin and new to all this DIY stuff. Wish me luck. Thanks for sharing!

[walshiethekidd]

Whats going on man..I see you can send one guy your plans for this. Do you mind if you share them with me? Im not to familiar with youtube. Can you somehow get back to me? Thanks.

[PTranProduction]

@walshiethekidd

I am glad that you like the stand. I sure can share the plan with anyone who is interested in building one.

Good luck with your project!

[schemedley]

Phong Tran,

Do you have the plans? Could I contact you with questions? I've never built anything like this before and I would love to connect with questions.

[PTranProduction]

@schemedley

I do have a sketched plan for this stand. if you really want a copy, let me know and I'll be happy to send you one. You can also send me a message or question via my YouTube's channel, I'll try to do what I can to help.

Thanks for interest in this.

[Phantomg23]

what are the dimensions of the stand

[PTranProduction]

@Phantomg23

Top Dim: 6' x 18"; Height: Approx. 30"

[joshuacohenjc]

how much did it cost you to build this

[PTranProduction]

@joshuacohenjc

Cost of materials was about $350.

[TecWithMe]

gummy bear<3

[ctychiro]

What, no pictures with the tank set up and running??? That's the final piece!

[PTranProduction]

@ctychiro

:-) It was supposed to be that way but....I did not have the tank for long after the stand finished.

[jghamer12]

Good Design, built very practical, thanks for the video.

[exv152]

Very nice tank stand, do you have any plans to do a hood cover?

[PTranProduction]

@exv152

No plan for hood cover.

[kamjatsingh]

Nice stand, im inspired to do 1 for myself. And i really like the cute song. Im a gummy bear oh im a gummy bear. Did u sing it?

[PTranProduction]

@kamjatsingh

haha! I wish I would be that good of a singer. :-) No, I did not sing it.

[PLASTICPOPCORN4]

What kind of wood did you use/ is best for the project?

[PTranProduction]

@PLASTICPOPCORN4

Finished pines & finished plywoods

[EXOGREEN]

Nice stand Finish.Will it be possible to have a dual stand.Cause ihave a 120 gallon and a 60 gallon and i would like to set both tanks

[PTranProduction]

@EXOGREEN

This stand was made for a single 125/120 Gal (6 feet in length) tank. Anything else may require some modifications. :-)

[PTranProduction]

@Arteolike

Doors were made with finished plywood and hardwood trims.

[Arteolike]

How did you make the doors?

[PJPoggi]

What a beautiful stand. I would like to copy this for my 180.

The feet appear to be set back Iam guessing that they are directly below the 2x4s but outer skin extends beyond the outer edge of the 2x4s, giving the appearance of being set back - am I correct?

[PTranProduction]

@PJPoggi

You're correct.

[PJPoggi]

@PTranProduction

PTRan,

I may be incorrect, but the #2 platform (identical to the base platform) does not appear to add any strength structurally. Was that your original intent, or did you insert it for additional height?

[PTranProduction]

@PJPoggi

Just FYI, I used 2x3 finsished pies for building the frames/box of this project. But 2x4's will definitely be stronger.

So the idea of the # 2 platform (identical to the base one) was so that i could easily secure it to the vertical supports and then I could easily secure the top platform (which was laid on the sides of the 2x3's) altogether. I believe this does give some structural support to the top of the stand. But if you find it's not needed, you can choose not to build it.

[llnnssccify]

Man.. nice stand. Is that ebony stain? Or black paint?

[PTranProduction]

@llnnssccify

PolyShades - Stain & Polyurethane in 1 step (classic black satin finish) was used.

[GODSNAKE73]

Wow that is nice. 

[crayola620]

Are the supports 2x4's? Where did you get the plans for this stand?

[PTranProduction]

@crayola620

The supports are all 2x3 finish pines - (you could use 2x4's for stronger support). The plan for this stand was self designed.

[crayola620]

I'll try it with stud 2x4's for my 180 you think that will be sufficient?

[PTranProduction]

@crayola620

Using 2x4 studs is a good choice. But for a 180 Ga, I would add one more support in the middle or spaced equally, e.i. 5 support frames instead of 4 as of my plan.

[lordvad3r]

looks really solid build

[jjgentle1821]

wow 3thumbs up bro;) that would be at least 400 to 450 in the store.

[SACAcichlids]

nice stand how much did it cost?

[PTranProduction]

@SACAcichlids

Materials cost was about $300.

[williamdaman215]

I bet you spent like 50 bucks on that instead of buying one whitch would be like 150 buck

[PTranProduction]

@williamdaman215

If there was a stand like this out there that costs 150 bucks, I wouldn't bother to build one myself. :-)

[DaMan478]

Awesome! I wouldn't even be able to tell that you did it yourself!

[Vitaliy711]

What kind of wood and stain

did you use? Great stand,

one of the best.

[PTranProduction]

@Vitaliy711

I used finish pines for the frame, finish plywood for walls and doors & hardwood trims all around. For stain, PolyShades - Stain & Polyurethane in 1 step (classic black satin finish) was used.

[Vitaliy711]

@PTranProduction

Thanks, for the reply

keep uploading videos!

[PTranProduction]

@Vitaliy711

Will do. :-)

Thanks!

[razaaztlantexican]

Excellent job on that stand, I will love to built me one my self but without the inside walls. for sump purposes

[hubbajohn]

[darklordspike]

5 stars just for the damn song

[rarityd]

Wait for the family members to calm down a bit, and get another tank for that stand?
