I had some wood laying around and glass panels so i decided to try and build a tank out of it. The inside dimensions are 48x23x21 and heres what i have done so far.

Interesting! I've been thinking about building something similar before I attempt my 450G.

This is my practice for when i do get around building my 10'x4'x3' someday.
 
Heres an update, just need to fill in the holes and seal it of with epoxy. The second one im making is the same as this one.

Have a bit of a look around the DIY section of the forum. There are some pretty enormous plywood build out there.

I know it doesn't use plywood, but here's and example of a really big wooden tank.
