Very impressive thus far! You managed to make everything look organized compared to what the rest of us go through on tank builds that involve the demo of a section of the house!

Ya, I've had a few weeks to plan this one out. I'm not going to rush this one, going to take my time and finish everything right the first time around.

Tank is looking good for a start.




I also noticed you pay in beer. Call me. I work for beer. Ha ha!

But seriously, if you need any help Bob, let me know.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Thanks for the offer guys. It just so happens my glass is in town and I have to pack it in down stairs, so I might be calling in a few favours in the next couple of days.
That being said I have to go and finish the stand off, the welding is all done just have to prime and paint up all the welds and some of the surrounding area. Cut the shelves up so have to seal up those as well before the sump and frag tanks are made up.
Well what you saw so far is about 4 days work so I hope you don't expect this amount of pics daily.
