Никогда не выбрасывайте старый телевизор.. Вряд ли многие люди продолжают использовать старые ламповые телевизоры по прямому назначению. Однако такие «допотопные» модели всё еще хранятся у некоторых в кладовках, на балконах, а иногда и просто на чердаках. Что делать владельцам с этим ненужным (на первый взгляд) хламом? Можно выбросить, подарить знакомым, продать частным скупщикам… А можно ли придумать что-то получше? И сегодня мы расскажем, какие большие красивые поделки своими руками можно смастерить из стареньких телевизоров. Достаточно потратить немного свободного времени, чтобы соорудить из ненужной вещицы настоящее украшение для собственного дома.. Если в доме живет домашний питомец, то можно порадовать старым телевизором и его, смастерив вот такое симпатичное жилище. Главное, чтобы красивая поделка нравилась не только тебе и твоим гостям, но и самому питомцу.. А для тех, кому больше по душе возиться с безобидными рыбками, может понравиться идея соорудить чудный аквариум из телевизора. Только представь, как удивятся твои домашние, когда увидят эту красоту в гостиной.. Если ты любишь читать, причем предпочитаешь книги не в электронном, а именно в бумажном варианте, то наверняка тебе понравится такое местечко для любимых книг.. А если тебе интереснее проводить досуг не в тишине с книжками, а в шумной компании друзей, то стоит переделать старенький ламповый телевизор в мини-бар. Сюда крепких напитков поместится немало.. Старым телевизором можно порадовать и ребенка, смастерив из ненужного устройства настоящий уютный мини-домик. И подарок для малыша, и для украшение для дома. Хотя попотеть над такой красотой точно придется.. Использовать старую «Весну» либо «Электрон» можно и саду. Получится более чем интересная клумба для цветов, которая придаст новые штрихи облику твоего участка.. А если тебе лень возиться с переделкой старого телевизора, то в таком случае можешь его попросту перевернуть — и получится стол. Превосходно! Как видишь, сделать большую поделку своими руками из телевизора не так и сложно, достаточно проявить немного фантазии, чтобы превратить старую рухлядь в полезную для дома вещь.
В этом видео мы рассмотрим интересную идею а именно, как сделать аквариум из телевизора своими руками.. #АквариумИзТелевизора #FishTank #Aquarium #Screensaver #АквариумСвоимиРуками #СвоимиРуками #Самоделки #Diy #ХитростиМастеров #Поделка #Craft #КрутаяИдея #ИзХлама #СделайСам. #аквариум #телевизора #своими #руками #самоделки #хитрости #мастеров #поделка #крутая #идея #хлама #сделай #сам #fish #tank #aquarium #screensaver #diy #craft.

hey joey. you mentioned using urethane to seal the inside. is urethane aquarium safe? like for instance, if i spray the inside of a wooden aquarium cover with it to protect from water damage and water splashes up under the cover from an air stone or water being thrown in by the inflow and the water drips back into the aquarium will the fish be effected??? hope you understand what i am trying to say.
Great instructional video! Definitely going to try this. Would you recommend using a bow front aquarium? I’m worried about whether or not the bow on the television screen combined with the bow of the aquarium will effect the display. Thanks in advance!
Hello! I wanna pull this DIY on my old TV heh. Couple of questions. First, I’m not a huge fan of people able to see the inside of the TV through the tank, can I make a tank out of mirror glass instead? Or does that have some sort of negative side affect? Second, I can’t find the video where you show how to cut glass, can you direct me? Thanks:D
Now you know what the inside of a picture tube looks like… 3:16. Another plastic set saved from potential landfill with a positive re-purpose (in this case a fish tank). Now you can watch something interesting while you’re home. The front of the old CRT is part of the tank that you built around it. That’s impressive (I hope it doesn’t ever leak). Peace be with you.:)
I’ve a blue imac g3 and i want to make a macquarium and i want to use the original screen glass from the imac. You taked the whole tube outside and came back with a single screen. How did you get the tube away from the glass and the «screw points» Did you use a saw to cut to whole tube of or something else??
Discharge CRT is easy, should be first step in this video, strapped across the back of the tube is a thin braided metal strap, this is the ground to prevent possible shock from any static build up, wrap a length of wire round this then round the shaft of a screwdriver then push the screwdriver tip under the HT cap on the top of the tube back into the middle, if you hear a loud crack its done, if not its been off a long time. 22″ around 20kv, wont kill you (high V low I ) but dam it hurts lol
ok, im building an tv aquarium, got the front glass out, and cleaned it off and it seams to be textured/sand blasted, did you experience this? a friend thinks its a coating but its not coming off and to me looks textured/sand blasted… i really wanted to use the original glass for the shape and overall original look, but i guess i can use a flat panel of glass and just do some body work and mold the existing frame to it.. the tv is a 1970 zeneth 22″
I did a blender fish tank:) sounds sorta bad when you say it, but I took out all the wires covered the blade with rocks, I didn’t know how to take the blade out. Then I put my beta fish in, I picked a beta since they don’t need a lot of space:)
Found the website. It’s called glasscages. If you scroll down, you’ll find MISC on the left side. Just click on «Tank Frames». It costs 15 bucks. Not bad for a free aquarium. If you want to go the cheaper way, just find some scrap STRONG metal and bed it using heat. Dustinsfishtanks has a video of it here in Youtube when his friend’s bowfront aquarium’s frame broke. Again, I’ll rather be safe than having 55 gallons of water inside my house. If you need any help, join DIYfishkeepers forum.
Be EXTREMELY carefull removing and crack the main tube. It is vacummed. (sorry, don’t know the right word) It may very well explode, or actually implode. Anyway, the result is glass flying everywhere. Best is to break of the thin back end first, to «release» the vacuum.
use GE silicone 1, let it cure properly and you will have no problems, I would imagine the fine print on the bottle is so youll pay $20 for the exact same silicone with a different label at your lfs…. same with coral glue just use cyano acrylite gel and its exact same as what they sell for $20 at your lfs
It’s an amazing idea… In theory. It looks great now, but without a filter, you need to clean your fish tank at least once every two weeks… Which means you’ll have to take the tv apart constantly because there is no filter. If you could add a filter, this would be an incredible idea!!
Your disclaimer is not worded nearly strong enough. People have been seriously injured, blinded and even killed from mishandling a Cathode Ray Tube. The tube is a hard vacuum, if it implodes the glass and components can rebound as dangerously sharp shards, the shell acts as a capacitor that can store a charge as high as 30,000 volts and the whole thing uses coatings that are highly toxic. They should be handled with extreme care.
How do you angle the glass as I would fill the hole space more volume custom fitted around all the other bits like filters and that as wouldn’t mind building one out of a projector flat screen that would be ok for a couple of fancies or more
IMPORTANT! CRT TVs hold a MASSIVE carge and can KILL you! Pressing the power button while it’s unplugged ia not enough to discarge the set. Use a screwdriver grounded to the chassiss of the set to discharge the tube by putting it under that cup on the back of the tube making sure you don’t touch the metal part of the screwdriver while you do it.
Do you know how to put in speakers in an old suitcase and a dock for an ipod at the top? thanks. still not sure how to do the fish tank part. wish you had an in person class so that I can make it there…
Hi Joey, I would like to try this build making my own tank out of acrylic. Do you think I could use the existing tube as a mold in order to get the «bow» effect?? Or, will it shatter from the heat?
Thank you so much for this video. I plan on converting my fathers old Curtis Mathis tv into a dog house for my mothers Wiener dog. My biggest concern so far has been how to gut the tv. I’ve read plenty of websites but your instructions were clearer to me and gave good tips on how to be cautious. Your project looks great and good idea for keeping the screen! I thought the same thing… putting a fish tank in a gutted out tv looses the effect. I am trying to keep the buttons and the speakers on the right side of the tv because I feel the same way…. they add to the effect of it being an old tv. Anyways subscribing and thanks for the help!
Hey joey, nice vid. Keep it up. Had a question for you. I have pretty much the same tv. Hitatchi I think and wanted to do the same thing to it. Its been gnawing away at me to do it for a few years. This really makes me want to do it. Was just wondering, do you think I could use the actual tube as an aquarium. Do you know if the lead is on the inside or outside? Thanks
one thing ill say to do before discounting ever thing on the tv but after cuting the power cord is cutthat red wiere that on the sid of the tube keep it long that leed to the capater and you take it and you tap it alog the end of the toob and it will dicharg any charg stord in it then prseed to remove the rest
Damn! I just followed your excellent tutorial but only to find out my front screen is not completely see-through! It’s kind of dim even after a good cleaning, double damn…there goes my 60’ies kinky red tv-aquarium…
I did get the exact same t.v also free in working condition and fortunately on the way home I seen a 33 gal tank with the front cracked in someones trash so I also nabbed that….. oh to good to be true!!
No offense i did this without the front glass and it looks great. Yours looks a little crappy. But i like your idea of keeping the front glass. I would have kept the front glass and just dropped a tank in behind it. It would of looked great. ( I did love the video.) Your videos are great. Just a little constructive criticism.
Nice work mate, I have two fish tank TVs, the first one is simply the tank inside a TV box, not the look I wanted, as you explained, but the front glass part was securely adhered to the back tube, I didn’t even think of cutting the back off like you did Doh! but it still turned out well enough. The second project (still in pieces) I got lucky as this particular TV had a separate bowed glass piece to the tube WOOT, this one will be an awesome fish tank TV!
you people talking bad about this guy about the way he creates yall need to shut the fuk up this guy can come up with some cool stuff things that you you never heard of a probably even thought of give this man his credit.,.. sir you are getting a thumbs up…
question! I am building a sump for my aquarium and I oicked up that exact same silicone, and I went about zhalfway through the first bottle and noticed really fine print that said not for use under the waterline or dod aquariums, and it is the identical silicone you are using…..is there a reason behind it before I return the rest of my silicone for more expensive stuff?
Another tip, at the end of the tube neck, there is a plastic ring with pins, in the center is a small nipple of glass, this is where the air was vacuumed out and the glass melted shut, take a hard pin like a masonry nail a tap tap tap until you hear the air starting to hiss into the tube, then go and have a beer as it may take 20 mins to fill. If it accidentally gets broken now it wont implode showering the area with shards of glass.
They sell aquarium braces online. Not sure where, but google’s your friend. I’m not sure how much they cost, but they should be cheap. If you don’t use a brace, the weight of the water will create pressure to the silicone which makes the edges waterproof. If you fill it up right now and the aquarium doesn’t break, it will eventually. I’ll rather spend money on a new brace rather than having 55 gallon of water inside that might damage something and end up repairing for a lot of money.

I don’t think it would shatter. Glass can tolerate high temperature, but if it shatters, the tv is not that expensive.
There are actually old box TV’s that has a flat screen. They’re not the vintage kind, but similar to the box TV’s 10 or 20 years ago.
