Aquarium Stand

Very very nice! How did you go about getting the panel of the doors to curve? Always wanted to try something like this.

Very very nice work I like it…

That’s by far the nicest homemade aquarium stand I’ve ever seen. The matching bow front is a nice touch. Excellent species selection. I probably would’ve tried to use the aquarium as my bent lamination form…

Nicely done a very cool design.

Zindel, I routed a 1/4” slot in the door rails/stiles. I laminated the curly maple veneer to 1/8” plywood. I slid the veneered ply into the slot … it takes the curve quite easily. The second sheet of 1/4” ply was a little tight so I ran it under the drum sander until it just slid into place .. no glue, no fasteners to hold the panels in place .. nice curly maple on the outside and oak on the inside. Hope this helps.

Tanks (pun intended) all for the favorable comments. Happy holidays to all.

That is most beautiful stand ever !! great job on it, you look like a master wood bender.
