I made this in 10 minutes for $50 and saved my sister $300 lmao thank you!
Love this for you
Thank-you so much for your tutorial! I made my first stand this past weekend. It turned out great!
I'm so happy to hear that, Ebony! Thank you so much for sharing 💕
this was so easy thank you so much for this video!
You're so welcome!
I loved your voice! And thank you for an excellente tutorial, starting tomorrow this project for my business! :D
Thank you so much!! Let us know how it turns out :))
So beautiful I would be trying this for my wedding 💕💍 Thanks
Best wishes to you!!
Thank you for all your tutorials!
My pleasure! I'm glad you like them :)
Thank you!!!! I built my stand yesterday, It looks so good. I went a different way with the base, but it's perfect. I bought rose gold hooks on Amazon to go with it.
Logie, would love to see how your stand turned out!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial
Such a beautiful idea! thank you!
Glad you like it! Thank you 😀
Great video!!! I am making a stand for my daughters wedding and this is going to be perfect!! The acrylic sign she wants to hang on the stand is 48x54. How much weight can the stand hold?
Brenda, I am going to make one for my son's wedding. Have you figured out how to make it sturdy. Mine will be large as well.
So cute and perfect for the idea of wedding I have in mind 🥰😍
TY Meli! So happy to help 🤍🤍
Thank you for this tutorial! Do you bond the top pieces, or only the bottom/base pieces?
You're welcome! Bond the bottom then the top so the longest 5' are free for transport!
How sturdy would you say the stand is? I’m looking to make two. One for my seating chart and the other to have a neon sign hanging from it. Thanks!
I would bond all ends for the neon sign and add sand bags outdoors if needed!
Awesome video. I may do similar for a PC open air frame.
Thank you so much! Will you then spray paint it? I’ve been on the lookout for gold material but thinking will resort to spray painting the copper
@@CarlyKeller Probably leave as regular. I like copper look.
Hi Carly! Thank you for this video and all the advice/tutorials you give out! Would you use this size stand for a smaller piece of acrylic like the 18x24 sheet? Or would you change the dimensions?
Hi!! Thanks for being here! I size the stand to the sign leaving 2-3" of space on each side (about 22-24" wide for the 18x24). Hope that helps!
What size stand would you recommned for 36x36 acrylic sign? I was thinking 40" for the top but not sure about the bottom and the sides.
The 5-6' height works well for my 36" tall signs! You may need sand bags or weights if outdoors for larger signs like that
How much did all of the supplies cost you? This looks so easy but debating if purchasing one is cheaper. Thank you!
I buy in bulk to help keep the costs down! So if you just need one may be cheaper for you to order online
This is awesome! Would this work with a foam board instead of an acrylic sign?
Morgan, I am making one for my son's wedding and am thinking the foam board as well. have you done yours yet?
This is great, thank you! Could you should about how much it cost for all of these materials?
Hi, is it guess work for getting the upright connectors straight or is there a trick? I’m guessing it would put the whole frame off balance with the extra strain of a wonky upright.
Hi! Its pretty much eyeballing at that point. I use my garage floor since its flat/even and not worried about getting glue anywhere
I wonder if you spray paint the copper bar? Do you think it would stick?
I'm trying here soon for an upcoming order! Will film for a tutorial :)
Do you think using the plastic ones and painting it gold or copper would be fine
I haven't tried the plastic piping but believes I've seen others do it! I'd spray some type of sealer with that to help keep the paint from scratching off
How did you insert holes in your acrylic sheet or did it come that way?
You can buy them from most plastics stores this way..just a few extra bucks for them to do it or diy with a drill. I usually have them do it in case it ruins the acrylic since some sheets cost me $20+
Hi love your videos. What side would you recommend for a 40 by 60 acrylic sheet
Hi, can we spray paint the pvc pipes/ connectors gold?
This is made from copper but I have spray painted it! Just dont expect it to last all that long. Still looks great in photos though!
Why are 3 10’ pipes required? I’m quite bad at may but don’t you only need two to get all the peices?
Thank you for the video! What are the dimensions of the stand?
HI! This is about 30x60"
Would this be possible if you tried making a hexagon shaped stand?
I think so! Just with different elbows
Great tutorial! What would you rent this for with a sign? Thank you
What is the size of the sign that is hanging on this stand? :)
great video. What size is your acrylic sheet you used for this? mine is 18x24
This is awesome, what is the thickness of your acrylic sheet? if i may ask.
Thanks Megan! Of course, its 1/8" frosted acrylic :)
How long does it take you to make these? I am thinking to do this for our seating chart, welcome sign, & unplugged ceremony sign.
I'd guess about 30 min each!
Hi! Love your videos. Thank you for sharing. What do you use to open the holes on the acrylic in order to hang it? Thanks!
Hi! Thank you so much! Heres how I drill the holes: th-cam.com/video/-PKhhcYJ2gU/w-d-xo.html
Hello,
Where did you get the copper colored s hooks for the sign?
From amazon! They are linked in the video description :)
Love the video. Would E6000 work to glue the pipes together as opposed to using the just for copper?
Thanks Melanie! I haven't tried but would do a test piece to make sure it'll work :)
@@CarlyKeller is the glue necessary? or can I go without it?
Hi Carly! About how tall is it? and how much weight do you think it would potentially hold?
Hi Molly! These are app. 5' tall and have held a seating chart (24x48) before. Just be careful if these are set outside as they may need weights to keep from falling over!
Thank you for this amazing tutorial!! 🤍 What can you recommend if I want more of a gold finish (vs copper)?
You are so welcome! Maybe you could spray-paint it gold and add a sealer so it won't chip? I've looked for gold piping/fittings and have yet to find a good alternative 😭
Brass might work
If you don’t mind me asking, home much did it cost for the copper?
The 10' pipes are around $10-13 and the fittings are about .50-1.50 depending if you buy in bulk or not. Hope that helps!
I wish I would’ve saw this comment before I went to Home Depot! My 10 foot half inch pipes just cost me $27 each! I didn’t see any other option.
What kind of S hooks did you use and where did you find them?
They are linked in the video description :)
How big are the holes that you drill to fit the S hooks?
1/4" I believe. Heres a video showing how i do it! th-cam.com/video/-PKhhcYJ2gU/w-d-xo.html
Amazing! Too bad you can’t collapse them for storage purposes.
What are the dimensions of the acrylic sheet you used here?
Why 3 of the 28 inch you work only with 2 long
The third 28 is for the very top 🙂
How about the size? Can u explain me every size of the pipe?
The size of each pipe is in the video description :)
Great tutorial! How much did the materials cost in total
Thank you! I buy the copper pipes and fittings in bulk/pro packs so a difference in cost than what someone would buy to make just one. All supplies are linked in the description so can add up the materials you would need for your own custom-sized stand 💖
How thick is the acrylic sheet?
1/8" :)
What size is your poster board?
This is a 24 x 32"
Thank you!
