Just a preview...

I see someone copied Jamie's stand.

Reef Bullet · May 5, 2013

I can't remember what it looks like but I know it was like floor to ceiling cabinets... so what in the world make you say I copied it?

Emac909 · May 5, 2013

No he had the same exact molding.

Oh well he doesn't have the exclusive on that moulding...

Actually, I kinda copied this guys stand. Lol

Nice stand

Reef Bullet · May 10, 2013

I'm finally finished staining the stand!

I still have to build the doors but that can be done after we get the tank put on the stand.
Oh and of course I still have to poly it, too.

Wow I'm surprised. ....it actually looks good!

Jk Jk. I can see there was a lot of time and effort put into this stand! Honestly it looks really good. Can't wait to see it all finished! Can u hurry up, I have no patience. Lol

Thanks Nick. I'm trying to hurry!

Who knew I really COULD build a nice stand, huh! All that trash talking on my last build that never was completed.... I didn't care then because it was easier to have him do most of the work... but this time, it would never get finished if I didn't take matters into my own hands! He's hardly ever home and he kinda had his fill on the last stand I never ended up using. And then the whole tank mover/move... and unless I learn a lot more about plumbing and fast, he's gonna have to help me a lot more soon...

Well my hands are the least stained part of my body that actually got stained because I scrubbed the heck out of them with 'Fast Orange'... BUT I have stain in my hair, on my arms, legs, feet, and clothes.

Jhuneke said:

Thanks Jami!

Riblet said:

Thank you David! Yeah it's hard for me to believe it looks so different and turned out so nice!

Reef Bullet · May 14, 2013

Well I wasted time staining the bottom beams... my husband added more of them and put a nice floor on the bottom so I stained that and coated it in Thompsons water sealer today.

Does anybody know if I can/should also put a coat of poly on top of the Thompsons?

SchnitzelReef · May 14, 2013

U should try putting the tank on the stand and putting salt water and fish and corals in it...that's what most people do.

Very funny Schnitz.... I can't wait till that day! We're ready to bring the stand in the house and get the tank on it but we need to coordinate some buddies to come over and help us carry the tank outside to still it for a closed loop and then bring it in and put it on the stand.

GoReef165 · May 15, 2013

Lindsey, you've done an incredible job making that stand. NOT RUSHING like some people..cough, cough. Your patience will pay off soon

Reef Bullet · May 15, 2013

GoReef165 said:

Thanks Rob! Even my husband is rushing me cuz he just wants it to be over! Lol I can't wait to have it all finished but I really want it to be perfect, too, so I am exercising my patience

reefes pieces · May 15, 2013

Looks like working in flip flops Daisy duke shorts and doo doo stained fingers really paid off Lindsey! Stand looks classy! Great job!
