oops, looks like I've exceeded the time limit for edits - wanted to make the image smaller since it's only a sneak peek..
Moderator, kindly edit the last sentence to correct the image post. Just wanted a smaller size, but looks like not all the BBcodes are "enabled"?
Thanks!
nice writeup!
nice setup too!!
Bravo "Clap" "Clap"
Thanks guys.
Yes, the light stand is also a DIY - it's really simple. A stainless steel rod bent into an "L" shape. I chose to have it hung from the back rather than the sides, so had it secured using these chrome pipe holders which you can get from most hardware stores. It can be secured using either nut&bolt or screws. I used screws directly onto the back.
Impressive !
That is cool.
Thumbs up for your effort and sharing.
hey is this ban heng long company where you bought your wood located at Syed Alwi Road Teck Heng Long Industrial Building???
yes, correct. that's the one. look forward to seeing your build!
yeah... this sat i will go and get the materials =) stay tuned... hopefully i will be able to complete my DIY cabinet in 1month time or less.
that's Great bro! Don't forget to take lots of pictures to share!
All the Best!
Cool..now i can start making my own too.
Thanks pal!
Solid DIY skills and even attempt to do laminate all by yourself. Great Job!
Thanks for all the kind words.
I hope my sharing has encourage some of you to give this a try; it's really not as difficult as some DIYs/videos have shown, especially the lamination part. I was originally put off with the need for a router, until the kind folks at TAK products (laminates) gave me a 5min "tutorial" - it's really not that hard.
I'm already thinking if I should re-do my current dark blue laminate into a glossy black (to match the piano it is sitting beside) or go with ivory white for contrast!
Feel free to clarify any doubts and also share your experiences!
It shouldn't look like an extension of the piano so I'd go with Ivory White for contrast. Very nice work by the way, but I think one of the image links is broken?
Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
Bro stormhawk, you're right - I shouldn't make it the same colour as the piano, else it'll look like the piano is super extended and weird! hahaha.
Yes, the "broken link" image was supposed to be a sneak preview of the tank whilst I'm battling the Algae bloom which I'm very happy to report now is under control (not algae free yet, but the GBA is all gone!)
This was what I posted. I'll find time to share the tank setup pics as well as the DIY LED lightset. Comments welcomed!
Thanks bro. I'm finishing up on the 2nd piece (1.5fter) and will post the pics shortly.

Thanks brother Felix. You're too kind. As mentioned, it looks "good" from far but far from good closeup! haha.
Here's the 1.5footer that I finished about a month back but only just now finding time to upload. Noticed that the plywood (especially the door) warped quite a bit! . Again, it's ok if I'm not viewing upclose. (heh heh).
With the Light Stand fitted, placed next to "big brother" (3fter is lower by 2 steps):
Pardon the poor pictures. Need to learn how to take better pictures!
