AUFishGuy April 2, 2020 Share April 2, 2020 So I am itching to get back in the hobby. Wanting to go the 40 Breeder route and drill the back. This will be in my living room so a canopy to help with light pollution is a must. Also since it's in the living room I want it to look nicely finished. I figure I have two options listed below. Wondering which one you all will think is best. Option A: standard diy wooden stand with canopy and paint/stain. I have seen a number of videos online on building these and it seems straight forward enough. Option B: Buy the steel stand for a 40 breeder that I can get for $60. Then use high gloss cabinet board and clips that attach to the metal frame as the skin. Then make the canopy out of the high gloss board as well. Noise will also be a concern. I feel like the high gloss will look better but it may be tougher to make it quiet? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImGoingCoastal April 2, 2020 Share April 2, 2020 I built my 40 breeder stand. They're easy enough to do, frame then skin. If you paint it and don't like it. You can always paint it again!Sent from my SM-G970U1 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
