i seriously hoped this worked cause i dont feel like tryin to post these pics again:swear:

Hah yes they worked. awesome so far. I think it might be something up with MFK right now..as it wont let me load a custom avatar, nor will it let me upload anything to an album right now either.

yeah i finally just got it to work through Facebook. But i thought it wasnt working because i had to many pics in my album and ended up deleteing the whole album just to find out that wasnt it :swear: oh well
 
God i hate Fiberlass.. 1st coat didnt get solid (tacky). 2nd coat just got cured and im babout to sand it done. Oh and just placed my order for Pondcoat this morning so hopefully ill have that by next week. need to go get prices on glass today as well.
 
Looking good. Nice shop, wish I had the room to have my shop all setup again.:(

which fiberglass resin did you use?

i went with the 3M Bondo all purpose resin. the mixture rate is only at a teaspoon anount so i had to calculate a larger amount mix ration. 2 teaspoons per cup of resin works pretty good. just gotta work fast. had it clump up on me:irked: thank god for palm sanders.:headbang2
 
got one of the Fx5 in last night and put in on my 60 gallon this morning. water was a bit cloudy but got crystal clear in like 3 min haha
 
The glass is finally in!!:headbang2:headbang2:headbang2 Ill see if i can get it installed tonight. If ill do ill have pick up later or tomorrow. Still need the PC to arrive:irked: but thats the last thing, then there will be WATER:D:D
