First DIY: Tank Cover

[Gujustud]

Well I couldn't take it any longer, so I had to start my first DIY.

Just incase you don't know my background, I work with my dad, who own's his own CNC Machine shop. Its a small shop, mainly just the two of us work there. We've got 2 CNC machines (VMC) and a manual lathe, and a few other stuff.

Anyhoo, I'm also new to the whole reef thing, and if you're read any of my other posts, you'll know I just started off (or check my blog).

Well I noticed how much the water evaporates from the tank, and also the heat loss. So today, I made my own tank cover for the top of the tank (duh). I just installed it, however, as always, I made it a little too big. I've also gotta do some small modifications to it for the wires, and so forth, which I'll do tomorrow. All in the learning process
