Lance's 225 gal tank

I had finished doing some plumbing on my first tank and I must have let the parts sit drying for at least 30 min. I wanted to know if it was still wet and decided to put my nose to one end of the plumbing and 'take a wiff'.

I damn near fell over everything went black. I don't think I had used more glue than needed either I'm just saying the stuff was still potent. 30 min seems too soon to me.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking: If you can still smell it, it's not fully cured. I think I'll leave it until no odor left.

When you do your nose test just use one nostril that way you can only HALF blackout. It works like that right!?

Jeez! I don't know. I'm already a half-wit. Might only take one nostril to put me on the floor.
