Not too much to update atm. Just did another coat of epoxy, a bit more plumbing. Waiting for my glass to come in. Supposed to be here jun 21.

Well my normal level of luck finally caught up with me. Was installing the glass panels today. Got the front installed and was installing a side panel. Took a lunch break and heard a loud pop. The side panel broke. Some how I over looked a spot where epoxy had made a droplet. Well I just happen to have my clamp on that very spot. I've gonna ahead and removed the front pane. Gonna go over all the glass mounting surfaces with a palm sander. Like I did all the first 5 coats. Expensive lesson learned.
