I don't think you're gonna find any new TV stand able to hold that thing up. Your best bet would probably be to look at older furniture or to build it yourself. You could put in on top of cinder blocks.

>>6305890
>cinder blocks
Concrete blocks, anon.

>>6305905

Anything made of wood other than an actual tree stump please?

>>6305820
pay for a costumized stand, might be more expensive but with the right materials it could last decades.

>>6305921
You're either looking at craigslist or an equivalent for old stands people are trying to get rid of, or you're going to be calling around to your local furniture stores and seeing if they have anything that meets those specs. If you go for the latter option, expect to pay several hundred dollars.

Use a filing cabinet with dossiers of your enemies.

>>6305820
New? IDK I got my tempered glass tv stand from Big Lots, way back in the late90s/early2000s. It's ugly as fuck, but IIRC it's rated for something like 250pounds. And my 36" Toshiba was damn near that.

Start checking offerup, goodwill and craigslist. If you see one with a front metal bar supporting the top glass, it'll probably do the trick. Remember, all the weight and I mean all the weight is on the front of the tube. Keep that in mind, when shopping around.

>>6305921
>not using an actual tree stump
An actual tree stump would be pretty based anon, but it'd probably weigh four times more than the shitty tv.

Most TV stands will hold 200 pounds. If it doesn't seem like total garbage it should be fine. If you want something fairly cheap that you can be absolutely sure will hold it get an AV cart.

Build it yourself or pay someone too, it’s worth the investment and time if you plan to keep it for years and years to come. On top of that you can have it look the way you want to YOUR liking and specs.

Or you can check the used markets such as Craigslist or OfferUp, there’s probably something there, but it’s old out of date furniture, idk I think it will make your way on look uglier desu.

>>6306041
The fact that it is front heavy is definitely something I will keep in mind while looking, thanks for that tip.

>>6306115
>>6305935
The craigslist in my area doesn't have any, I've already looked, and all the goodwills/salvation armys are closed indefinitely right now.

>>6306124
If you don't mind MDF garbage, best buy has some ~200lb capacity tv stands for about $200. Non-MDF real wood ones are $600+.

>>6306124
Yeah no prob. Way back when I had my 27" I never gave a second thought to how heavy the front was, but I remember very vividly just how heavy the front was on that 36". I remember we tried to carry it up the steps with the screen facing down because of how heavy it was, but had to carry it uproght because the stairway wasn't wide enough. It was a real fucker and I'm pretty damn sure I jammed my fingers between the front of the tv and the wall trimming. Having said that, I'm just happy I don't live in an earthquake zone or had small children around, because I never trusted it. I always felt like if something hits it the wrong way, it's going to tip forward and crush whatever is bellow. They really should have designed the son of a bitch with an anchoring bolt.

>>6305820
I always find it hilarious when people search for the wrong thing because they have it in their head that that's what they should be searching for. They haven't made TVs this size/weight in ages champ, so haven't made stands for them. It's sort of like if you were looking for a horse and keep coming up blank when searching for single seat vehicle. Try looking for something that looks like an old TV stand, supports things as heavy as an old TV stand, and quacks like an old TV stand but isn't called a TV stand.
None of my CRTs are on "TV stands". One is on a dresser, another is on some deep office shelves. Both of these have the advantage of being able to be closed, which protects my toys from light and dust and my cock from virginity.

>>6305820
Look up the model number and find the manual on Sony’s site. They should list the official stand under accessories.

>>6306486
You can literally just search corner tv stand on Amazon and find brand new ones that support 200+lbs, but sure thing.

yep, petco in the aquarium section.

>>6306534
>when you're literally such a zoomer you don't know how big a 32" CRT is
lol

>>6305820
so bestbuy used to sell a tv stand that could hold up to 250 pounds and was triple tier. it was glass and slightly inverted as it went up. fucking awesome, i tried buying it 3 times for 200 dollars but every single time the shitty ups center near me would absolutely destroy it to the point where it never even got delivered to my door and they would just inform me that it was destroyed and they're sending a new one. eventually i got tired of that so i made bestbuy give me 50 bucks in credit.

a few days after all that i ended up paying some guy 200 bucks for a sony kv-36fv310 in absolute perfect condition with stand(as perfect as it can get). had to drive an hour away, sliced my finger open while carrying it, and paid two junkies to carry it to the second floor for 40 bucks. all in all very worth it.

Man most of the weapons in Duke 3D are kinda lame.

>>6306618
forgot to include link to something similar to what i was trying to buy, they don't sell it anymore but this is teh closest thing.

i also made my own stand for my pvm, bought some good wood from home depot, brackets from amazon that suppose 700 pounds, and hooks/tension wire. shit maybe costed about 150 bucks

>>6306582
>when you're so dumb you can't even use a basic search engine on a site that wants your money

lol

Try having a budget over $40

>>6306627
Imagine thinking this looks good, you have outdated as fuck technology being displayed and used and I bet you think its cool

>>6306813
i think i took the pic in 2015 and i've since greatly changed my setup. even so i've got no reason to explain anything to you and i think you're on teh wrong board to even say that something like "you have outdated as fuck technology being displayed and used". like you're fucking retarded if you think this board is supposed to have 2020 tech. The bose speakers are insanely bumping, the receiver is dope af for the time. the monitor is a BVM. the only thing i'd say is outdated even for that time is the LCD which is if i remember correctly 2012 or 13. it really doesn't matter bc i know the setup was dope af and served my needs.

>>6306819
>The bose speakers are insanely bumping
Cringe.
>the monitor is a BVM
Cringe.

>>6306825
you do realize you're on a /vr/ board right?

>when you're such a zoomer you double down on stupid
Jesus kid, have you never even seen a CRT? They're like a gazillion times deeper than an LCD. Even a thin 32" CRT will be hanging off the edge of the deepest zoomer TV stand. A thick one will be nearly twice as deep as the average one. Back to le tiktok fukwit.

>>6306985
You really are too retarded to search a few keywords you've already been given. It's amazing. Keep pretending you're not on mommy's allowance.

>>6306627
>>6306819
Wasting 150bux only to punch holes in the wall?! Good luck getting your security deposit back.

Fish tank stands. Water is fucking heavy.

>>6305820

Sony designed some nice silver matching stands for their 27" WEGA models and larger. Fucking impossible to find though, and even then they want you to take the television.

>>6306992
>im too retarded to search the keywords im pretending im using
>im too retarded look up the dimensions of a 32" CRT
Keep pretending you've even seen a CRT kiddo. Back to le tiktok faggot

>>6307901
Go on little one. It's just a couple of key taps away. You could even try filtering by that big word you used, gazillions. That's a big boy word.

>>6306985
Ok this has to be bait

>>6305820
The original stand for my parents' massive 36" Trinitron got destroyed in a basement flood years ago. I bought a replacement from IKEA, some unit meant to fit into a corner, and it's held up well for several years.

>>6307984
Dos your mommy know you're using her iphone to shitpost?

>>6308069
Ok this has to be another zoomer. Or does it?

>>6308451
>if I keep calling you a child, it's you who's project, certainly not me

Tap tap tap. Big boy looks strong. Everyone is scared of big boy. Big boy know all.

>>6308451
>calling other people a zoomer when he's too retarded to go to home depot and buy 12 pieces of wood to build a stand
Yeah ok buddy. Need some help googling kiddie boy?

>>6305820
I keep mine on a solid nightstand, something like this. The surface is about the same size as the base of the tv.

>>6308471
>turbocope

>get btfo
>time to cope and move the goalpost
lol

>>6309332
Oh, you're awake. Good. Now the sun can come up, just like mommy told you it does, just for you.

>>6305820
Get one of those big floor units with the wood paneling and forego the stand.

>>6305820
Acquire a pallet and make one.

>>6309345

>>6309332
Go to home depot already MAKE SURE you call the cashier a zoomer before you leave so you can feel good about being a fool

>>6310259
>he's still coping

Thanks for confirming you're a child. Have a nice day, and keep filling that diaper.

posts like these make me feel as though /vr/ has regressed to /v/ standards or /v/ is just trolling /vr/

>>6313138
Well there was the in/v/asion but summerfags were worse. Then sub /b/ shit like >>6311812 showed up. Not even sure what that is. Nether of the other culprits have come anywhere close to that level of stupidity. Maybe a poorly programed chinese bot?

>>6305820
This, but it will cost you (£300). You might find it cheaper with some digging.

>>6313170
>baby still wants spoonfeeding

Go search for your stand already.

It's the rona.
All the brainlets who don't have crisis proof employment now have an absolutely insane amount of free time. It's effectively a massive influx of summer, across all age groups, across all sites and forums lately.
