  • 240g stand build start to finish

    This thread will show you the step by step process of me building a support stand then skinning it with black laminat for Mgarrido aka Miggy the master

    Build the matching trays




    Instahling the 2X4s



    Making sure it is square before instahling the side braces



    Then after all the braces are installed the back goes on I leave a two inch gap for wires and hoses


    And after that we have a finished support stand tomorrow I'll paint the stand inside and out and start the skin more to come

                I know it will probably get covered up still, but that's a nice look with the two tone. Cherry stain the skin, throw on some glass front cabinet doors and you're in business!
