Hey All! Haven't been posting in a while, been doing a lot of fishing and other stuff the past year. Got back in the shop over the holidays and produced a few pieces for my home office / computer room / "man cave".
First two pic's are shelves I made to display my fishing reel collection. One is maple, the other wenge.
LOML, my son and daughter in law were planning on getting me a 90 gallon fish tank for Christmas. They didn't like any of the 'store bought' stands so they offered to up the tank size to 120 gallon if I built the stand. Sounded like a great offer so I took it!
The basic stand is made from 3/4 maple plywood and trimmed in maple and wenge. My supplier had some real nice plywood. The side panels and back panel in the center are held in with rare earth magnets offering full access to the back if needed. Finished with one coat BLO and several light coats of Tried and True beeswax/BLO mixture. Looking forward to getting it set up this weekend!
As always, questions / comments / suggestions are welcomed! Thanks for looking! Tony
