I've been wanting to watch TV out at my hot tub and next to my pool. We used to bring a TV, cable, and power to my parents pool. This got more complicated once you needed a cable box to tune the channels. I came up with the idea of connecting a TV, a western digital live streaming player, and my sling box. I built the stand you see in the images from 2x4s and plywood. The top disconnects from the bottom to make it easier to move. All I need to connect is power.
I envision leaving the bottom outside near the pool in the summer. I will probably get a year or two before it weathers too much. I'll probably have to rebuild with pressure treated lumber.
I used it this afternoon for an hour or so and it seems to work well. Now I just need to get a bigger TV
. This is one I had in my basement from our old house. Let me know if you have questions.
