Looking at your previous set - up, I'll definitely be following this build. Your previous set up was tight man. Can't believe you jammed all that equipment into that stand. You're already planning to maximize your room with the plywood stand. Great job. I see that you've painted another stand in your garage judging my the paint spray in the picture! ...

Keep the pictures coming as you build.

Nope, one display, that's it

I got the glass in Monday but haven't finished assembling it yet. Moving is hard

I guess not but it will be nice in it's own way.

Here's a sneak peak at the glass going together





BTW, my camera is packed so you'll have to live with pictures from my phone

Nice. How much did the glass cost, If you don't mind me asking. Next tank, I think I'm building it too.
