Building a glass tank: Questions...

[lastlight]

Some really cool videos they have posted there... I couldn't believe how nice the edge work was considering it was all freehand! Then that video where they bond glass with that adhesive and uv light got me curious. The bottle said photobond and it looks to be just a liquid. No ugly silicone although I don't think it's suitable for tank building. I did some googling and found this chair...made the same way.

I talked to my glazier in-law and that glue is not suitable for tanks as it weekens drastically with moisture.
So if you want a great looking tank for a very very short while then it would be ok.
Otherwise, its impractical.
