  • Will build Wood Stands & Canopys

    My son has helped me build my stands & canopys in the past and now he needs to make the payment on his motorcycle so he's willing to work cheap.
    I have a tablesaw, router, drills (no lathe) but all the other toys needed and I will help with the plans and material list.  Delivery or pickup available.
    If you're interested, send me a PM with dimensions and desires, doors, stain/paint, built in lights and other things and He'll get back to you with a price.
                                                                                                                                                             
    'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
    He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

              I'll have to let him work up a couple of estimates this weekend.  But I'll get back to you.
              Do you want pine or marine plywood or Cabinet grade "Ash" ?
              Doors or no Doors ?
              shelves, power strips, Stained or Painted ?

                I might have some work that needs to be done.
                The 75g Stand is pine 2x4 & 2x6 framing w/ 1/2" marine plywood panels.  
                It has a built in 4' dual flourescent shop light in the bottom, behind the 8" access door and room for 2 - 15g tanks
                The canopy is "Ash" plywood & has 2 doors on top (front) with a built in 3' dual MV shop light set back behind the doors.  
                It has a light switch built into the canopy but no vent fans (the back is open)
                The finish is 2 coats of dark walnut with a Varathane top coat.

                We also built one for my 140g, The canopy was 8" and the stand was 36" tall and had 3 sections with 3 drawers on the right & left side and
                double doors front & rear for the center section. The back was enclosed because it was a room divider.
                Unfortunately I never took a picture of that stand just my 30" giant gourami "Harvy" who lived in the tank.
                'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
                He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

                      Construction grade, Cabinet grade  or Marine plywood ?  
                      Will you provide the hinges & knobs or shall I pick them ?  
                      Do you want the back open or cutouts per your dimensions ?
                      Do you want a plain box or have you selected the trim you want ?
                      Do you want delivery or will you pickup ?
                      You can leave it all up to me & I will get you the lowest price I can or you can pick any goodies you want but it will cost a little more.

                        I will have my son look at them and see if he can beat their "mass produced" prices.  
                        I know the quality will be better.
                        Do you want delivery also ?

                          No, I wouldn't want delivery at least not at moment.... I know off the top of my head that the 10g stand at fish gallery like the one in the picture is between 70-80 dollars
                          Here is a website... tell me what you think...

                            I think if he can't beat those prices he better find another way to pay for his Bike.
                            But I'll help him work up a good estimate and see if we can get you a quanity discount.
