Custom BERKEY WATER FILTER Stand - $10 Homemade DIY
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 พ.ค. 2017
- Materials used were a 2x4x8, a 1x4x8, nails, wood glue, wood filler, and spray paint.
We ripped the boards to get two 2x2x8's for the legs and four 1x2x8's for the rest.
If you are going to do something like this, you MUST GLUE and nail every piece on or else it will creak and be wobbly! The wood glue is super important.
We used wood filler on all the nail holes to make it look better.
This stand was for the 4.5 gallon Berkey water system. It could also be a plant stand.
We hope you enjoyed watching us make our Berkey water filter stand. Thanks for watching!

I have to say, I'm absolutely blown away by your creativity! Not only can you invision something inexpensively, you can build it! And Ashley is a terrific help-mate.
Really enjoyed that build. So glad I have been watching your older videos while waiting for new posts. I usually find myself building stuff either for myself, the Wife or our home. Later
So Awesome!! you guys are so thrifty and crafty.
Love that beautiful, custom made stand. The color dried pretty. I'm a little late, been going through and catching up on your earliest videos. I think YT counts comments as well as views and thumbs (up and down), so I'm trying to help 'cuz I just love you guys and it's so fun to see you all so happy in your new home in the country. Blessings.
Thanks! It came out pretty good. We are still using that stand now :) Thanks for checking out our older videos, that's awesome!
"Wahoo"
We just made one. Thank you, thank you! We love what you teach.
cool!! :D We are still using ours :)
I love how you DIY on the cheap.
Too cool!! Thanks for sharing.
beautiful.
Cool. Good design.
Thanks for the video! 👍🏼👍🏼
Well done.👍
You have some fun tools as well.
Thanks!!
Job well done.
I love it!🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
I love my Berkey.I use a recycled microwave stand for mine.
Push sticks 1000 times push sticks. This should be your project before any other table saw work. And your helper (haven't watched enough to know your relationship) is in the exact right spot to catch a flying piece of wood. Use push sticks and let them fall onto the ground/ outfeed support of some kind.
Otherwise, cool design I like it.
Your really talented. You come up with some good ideas
Thank you :)
Wish I had your talent. You can build some really cool things. Great video keep them coming.
Thank you :)
Very well built, well done....The only thing I would add is wear a mask when your spraying.
You are so talented in creating woodworks on the fly.... The color looks great and ties in with the painting on the wall! 😀
Thank you, Tara! The color was so ugly when it was first sprayed on but luckily it dried way better, haha! Yea it does match it perfectly!, but it's actually crewel embroidered (we like string art, lol).
MiniSteading oh nice I have seen some beautiful string art at an exhibit. I'm glad it dried and you love it.
I'm going to try making one!
💗 Love Your Videos
Thank you!
Looks kinda Charles Rennie Macintosh , you made it look so easy Xxx
If I were making it I would add a shelf to put a canning jar on for filling.
I like the music.
If it's not too much trouble, what model # is your Dewalt nailer used in this video. Thanks and Later.
pretty color but im biased I painted my lawn chairs that color.
Were looking into getting one of the water filters you have can you recommend a good place to get one
Amazon has Berkey filters.
What are the final dimensions?
does it wobble at all? I would have thought that you needed more support at the bottom.
No, it doesn't wobble. We glued all joints before nailing and the glue is what really keeps it all sturdy.
I tried this and failed miserably. I tried to use a hammer and finish nails instead of a nail gun and couldn’t get the nails through so I used screws and that split my small pieces in half. When I finished, the stand looked super warped and wobbly. You made it look very easy.
Sorry! Keep an eye out for a kitchen stool to use for a Berkey stand.
Water sounds like it’s filtering way too quick. Did you prime the filters when you put them in?
Yes, we primed them. The newer the filters are, the faster the water filters through them. If you don't prime them, water would have a hard time going through them.
wow you're brave putting your fingers that close to the saw. nice stand tho
Can you make me one ,what would it cost me
Not sure why you didn't like the color, Ash? Isn't that your front door color at this place? If you've still got this, maybe a can of appliance black would do the trick.
Loved the work, but annoying music caused me to fast forward and watch without sound .
Do you still like your Berkey?
Yep we still like it and use it everyday :)
Cool, because of you, I just bought and received my Berkey. Our water here is hard and tastes terrible. I used to have very good water where I lived before. Hoping for a good glass of water and to stop buying bottled water.
@@susanadams290 we bought a berkey because our water tasted so bad. We had it tested and there was nothing bad in it. It tasted much better from the berkey but not as good as bottled water but we use it for cooking and other places we need clean water.
