Show off your DIY stand

Nice touch with the door casing and corner accents used to frame the tank against the wall

Thanks! We had reclaimed barn wood around it but it never looked quite right. Behind the tank is my fish room so we had to finish off that hole somehow.

There is more detail at that thread if you want to log in or whatever; I did not know it wasn’t viewable. Here are a couple of the pics from that thread:

Perfect fit

I've built a few. The peninsula had to contain everything underneath and on the wall side. Stupidly over built. Progress and a couple finished shots. The other is a smaller stand I built for a friend and only have a picture prior to staining.

Simple 2x4 stand, the sides are made with Blue Stain Pine Tongue and Groove Siding. The side that opens has the door that opens for the power strip, and a panel that is magnetically attached underneath.

Here is the start of mine. I built it out of repurposed wood from free stuff on CL, except for the doors. I purchased 1/4 inch sanded ply and primed MDF trim to build them. I will post the finished project soon.

^ clean, I like it!

Mine is still waiting on shelves, but it's got a topcoat and is in the room. Glad I built it to a 35" height, its perfect next to the dining table- center of the tank is right at eye level.
