Love the video, but every time I watch you push the 2x4s on the table saw by hand I get anxious. I see your smart about thumb placement and we have all done it. Just gives me the 😬 face.
I watched your whole video while drinking 2 beers. I was mezmorized. There is a market for these because Petsmart or other stores dont sell tank stand above 75 gallons. Im getting a 90 gallon tank and after I add all the stuff in it will weight 1150 lbs. How much do you think this stand you made can hold safely. I like the video. Thanks for speeding it up and adding sound.
A 2x4 standing vertically holds 800 pounds. He has 10 2x4s holding the weight. This stand can safely hold 8000 pounds. I imagine your tank is only 4 feet long so you won’t need the center vertical support. Your stand would hold 6400 pounds. That’s not counting all the screws or the horizontal 2x4s. They don’t add much anyways. This is a very basic design that a user by the name of rocket engineer came up with back in the day on reef central. Super sturdy and incredibly easy to build.
Great video! Wondering do I need the middle support on the front? I have a 40 gallon sump to go under it so it would help with fitting it in there. Would changing the top of the frame to 2X6 help? (mine is for a 125 gallon - 72" long. Thanks.
Thank you and not to sure about having no center support although using 2x6 would definitely be alot stronger and less risk of sagging in the center if their was no support maybe double up the 2x6 on front and rear making it a 4x6
Sweet build. I'm not that crafty but makes me want to try for real
Great build. I'm going to build my doors like yours. It adds to my farm house look.
Fantastic work, Jamie! It turned out amazing! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you now I just gotta get fish in it

I do the same thing when I watch my videos after I edit them lol
Table saw not so much, his angle cuts on the miter saw, YEEEESH
All digits still intact.
Good build it ain't gonna go anywhere, you'll be able to land a b 52 on it.
Great inspiration, and awesome video. Thanks dude. Working on plans for a 150 reef tank I need to do a stand for.
Oh man that's gonna be awsome I always wanted to do a reef tank
@@jlistdiy thanks! I have done a few smaller ones in the past, but want to do this one big. Your video gave me a lot of great ideas for the build!

@@Squatching_Fish safety I say 3 to 4000 lbs easily

Sir what State are you in. .?
Hired this guy to frame my house. He had it done in 25 minutes.
Can you help me out with my aquarium stand project ???
What do you need help with ?
You need to sell these !!
I have thought about it
What do you use for floor board on the bottom?
I just used 1/2 inch plywood
What size tank is that?
110 gallon
How tall is your base
I went with 30 inch tall
I also did 30 on mine. It feels like a good height.
@@laethe230 yes definitely is a good height
