Everyone, Soon I will be building my own stand for a 180 and 125. Is there any advice you can give that you have learned from experience? I found some great plans but I just want to see if there are any hints that anyone has learned.
when u start to build it make sure the corners are square & it should be a breeze from there, i all ways measure 3,4,5 times & cut once.
once u have the frame done ur imagination can run wild.
I cut my stand twice and it was still too short : Make sure you have the right tools for the job. I built my current hood with only a circular saw. It looks good from far away, but I know where all the imperfections are.
You always know where your own mistakes are. I totaly refurbished my house and everyone says it looks great but I know where all the mistakes are! I hate that!
How tall did you build your stand? I was thinking of 45" tall so I can fit a good skimmer under there.
My advice is to bring a 12 pack over to Concept's house and have him build it. Stop at blockbusters and grab a few chickflicks to keep his better half occupied. ;D
