We did a craft show back before thanksgiving – I had made one of these for my wife a few years ago and included that picture in our album, but that was a 45 gallon stand. A gentleman saw the photos and asked if I would do another. This one is for 80 gallons, and included a canopy top. Gotta love relatively simple paying jobs right before the holidays.
Material is oak ply and standard molding and trim from the building supply. A door in the front of the cabinet to gain access to the pumps.
Took about 10 days to get it through the shop, but really about 12 hours shop time. (Boy the second one sure is faster than the first!!)
Finished shot is being delivered, I don’t have a photo of the final installation. with the tank on top of it.
-- Its never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

Nicely done! Too bad you don’t have a shot of the finished setup…I bet it looks great.

Have always enjoyed aquariums and a stand like this just makes them more enjoyable.
