Can anyone make me a stand for the least amount of money. The stand at the stores are like $120, the one with the doors to hide stuff u know. So if anyone have some freetime to make a stand. let me know...my budget is not very high... ------------- 40 breeder, TEK T5 6x39 7 months Quote by Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama "My religion is very simple.

Check the Goodwill ro the recycler. A 20g is not that heavy. I
kept a 15g on top of a dressor and used one of the drawers of the
dresser to hold the extra euipment.

from a store like home depot you're looking at about 60$ just in plywood alone, then add the 2*4's, add the doors, time spent on the project, and finally using someones table saw the 120 is a pretty good price.
If you didn't want to cover the stand with wood and doors and just make a frame for the tank it would be more around 20$, but it wouldn't be pretty.
by the way I have a frame only stand.
