Sweet job man👌😎
Well done, looks great. When I saw your livestream I thought it was an official ADA product.
Thanks
Awesome job, is nice to see a good painted cabinet that hasn’t been painted with some sort of sprayer
Thanks
Great job on the stand , BTW your other tank is looking stunning
Thanks
Like your idea
That plywood needs a lot of sanding between coats.
Hello - great looking stand! I was wanting to build a stand for my sons Aqueon 14 gallon frameless cube aquarium. Would you be able to assist with material list and measurements? All the other stand builds I see don’t really have a usable storage and I want to have that for his tank
Cool stands 👍👍
Thanks
Just one suggestion, when cutting ply wood you should cut you pieces along the grain for max strength,
Nice work. I built a stand for a 4' x 2' x 2' 110 gallon tank. It was 2 x 4 with a 1/2' oak skin and solid oak around the frame and panel oak and basswood doors. I also used the Titebond III with deck screws and walnut stain and poly. I put a solid 3/4 oak top on it and it is totally solid. Why buy something you don't know when you can make it yourself and be sure!
👍👍
Thank you for sharing!!
👍
Really nice!!
Thanks
Looks great! Do you notice a texture difference between the parts with the bondo and the plywood when painted?
Not really it's near impossible to even tell if done correctly
I dig this stand and I’m looking to make one for my new nano 10g. Can you share the build specs of what was cut? A little confused on how to go about it at first.
So there's gonna be 3 sides you'll need to cut back, and both sides, and then a 4th will be your door and then you'll have a top, and a bottom shelf that sits at the bottom but other than that, the only other would maybe be some vertical studs that you might put at the bottom and top for weight support, if you have more questions let me know I know it can get kinda confusing
maybe in future you try to wrapping in glossy laminate.. it will looks cool just like a kintons acrylic cabinets and extra adding waterproofing to the plywood
Yup I actually do that with a lot of clients cabinets. Just all depends on what the person wants
@@jjaquariums yeah maybe you can make some video tutorial with laminate would love to watch it :) thanks
So are you building your base and top of cabinet 3/4 inch short and having the tank rest its weight on the face frame?
Yeah exactly what I’m thinking and the sides aren’t strong enough too just imagine the tank filled with water
basically... obviously... actually... looks nicely
👊
I’m about to actually build a stand! What type of wood was it? My tank is only 14x14 so it’ll be small. How many sheets were used?
I used a very expensive plywood but any 3/4 plywood will do, but mine was a grade A 3/4 Oak plywood which is pretty much the best you can buy nice for furniture or cabinet work, and I needed only 1 4x8 sheet so for yours you'll Definitely only need 1
Hi, I'm designing a 30x30x75 wooden cabinet in your style. But I don't know if I should drill a hole in the side or not. I used Black Walnut wood, what do you think? Should I paint on Black Walnut? please tell me which wood is better or suitable. Is it suitable for me to use height 75?
Which Grey color did you use?
Space grey
Does the stand have any legs or pads at the bottom or is it just sitting on the wood?
Yes has legs that makes it sit off the ground about half inch
@jjaquariums which ones did you use?
@puroquiteno just some nail in one's any hardware store has them
The 90P is looking so good. What changed that made the Hra red?
I didn't change anything just day it changed not sure
Do you have plans for this? I want to try and build one of these
No I design and came up with it myself so there's no actual set of plans but if you watch this and watch others build plywood aquarium stands you should be able to build what you need
@@jjaquariums Okay thanks. I’m going to try and build one similar
@@slevinkelevra9361 If you need anything you can always comment on here or message me on Instagram
@@jjaquariums sounds good man thanks!
Fantastic. How did you mount your power bar in the stand? I have tried using double sided tape and it eventually falls off due to the tension from the cables/powerbar itself. Do you hang it on the one or two screws drilled in the stand?
I bought some stainless wood screws and mounted it
@@jjaquariums Thanks for the reply. 😊
looks great, do you have a cut list ?
It's built to the exact size of the 45c, do you have the same tank
Can you send give me exact measurement for each part? thank you!
Can I use this same method for a 150 gallon aquarium or will I need to use support beams?
To be safe you can use support beams, Ive seen them build without them but just to be safe I would
which material is it? Is it marine plywood? What is the that coated color called?
Grade A oak plywood, and the color is space grey
@@jjaquariums How can I buy the color paint any product name?
@@SintoJoseph the color was space grey by Dutch boy
How did you get the paint not to have brush strokes?
Roller
I am about to build the exact stand for a 12-inch cube! Would you mind sending me the plans/a list of measurements and the amount of materials that you need? I don't want to go too far overboard at the store and end up wasting a bunch of wood. Thanks in advance!!
what is the measurement of the front rim of the cabinet , i.e the fixed part where the door closes ?
@tfns2021 length of tank which was 17 4/4 and 5in tall
@@jjaquariums so that fixed part of the front where the door closes is 5 inches
tall ?
@@tfns2021 are you talking about the solid piece right above door
@@jjaquariums yes. The fixed border in the front where the door closes in
Then yes it's 5in
What was the price for the build? Looks great
If you take away tools and just add up materials and paint, screws etc, I used all high end material, like using grade A plywood, which can cost over 150 a sheet but the total wasn't bad about $300 when done
What type of filter is that? Looks like a stainless steel one.
ADA Superjet 600
@@jjaquariums thanks for the fast response!💪
How thick and which type of plywood did you use?
A grade 3/4" Oak
Could you link the paint and primer? Thanks
The primer can be any brand. I don't even know which one I used just a normal white wall primer and the paint color is called space grey
can you advise me which external filter is suitable for 30x30x30 aquarium?
I like the oase thermo 100
@@jjaquariums stainless steel options?
@@phuocletan6877 ADA Superjet 150
@@jjaquariums ver 2?
@@phuocletan6877 yes
What paint did you use?
Dutch boy paint
So how much did it cost to build and paint the stand?
I used the best possible material so it costed about $500 which still isn't bad
Ok cool.
Size?
18x18
a bit wonky.... :/
3600 subscibers and already 12sec pubs 🙄
