To all readers of a good time of day.
This article will be of interest to those people who have fish tanks at home, or those who decide to get them. So, if you have a problem with placing your aquarium, and you don’t know where to attach it, then you are reading the correct article, as it will describe how to make a special cabinet for the aquarium, on which you can easily place it. The entire manufacturing process is described in detail, and will be accompanied by a photo report.
To make a cabinet for an aquarium, we need the following:
Instruments :
- drill (screwdriver);
- confirmation drill;
- a pencil;
- angular ruler;
- roulette;
- awl for marking holes;
- a key a hexagon;
- hammer ;
- angular clamp;
- template for marking-drilling;
The cabinet project was created in the PRO100 program, it can be downloaded
The author provides detailed detailing with all sizes, as well as the number of fittings used. According to these data, he orders a cut in the furniture industry.
When the material is ready, we take our workpieces from production.
Getting to the assembly.
We take a special template, with the help of which we mark the side walls of the cabinet, and with the help of a drill we make holes in the places of fastening of the straps of the loops, as well as drill holes for the shelf holders.
Next, we proceed to the assembly of the housing. In order to immobilize the parts during assembly, we use angle clamps, then using the template we make holes for the confirmations, when everything is ready we screw the confirmations with a hex key. Then we put the shelf holders, we fix the supporting plastic legs on the lower edge of the cabinet. See the photo for more details.
Next, we make a marking under the bowl of loops, then using the Forster drill with a diameter of 35 mm we make holes, here you need to be careful, as you can drill through the facade. When everything is ready we fasten the hinges in the designated places, install the doors.
Now we take a special template with which we make markings for pens, if one is not available, you can use the usual ruler.
Our curbstone is ready, to roughly understand what dimensions it has, I quote the following data 680x290x700 (WxDxH).
Now we just have to do the most important thing, put the aquarium in its new place, and start the fish!
