new project.

[milkman407]

Just took a 2 hour drive, and picked up 2 48x24x30 glass tanks. We got lost on the way their and it took us an extra 30 mins . on the way home my brother slammed into the back of the truck, thank god it didnt brake the tanks.

Tomorrow, I'm building the stand for the tanks.

ordered the drill bit to drill the glass, so about 9 days for that.

Will take pics of the whole process.

Trust me, I did. thats why I pulled over. Was like " O darn the tanks! ".

Just finished the base of the stand, all thats left is to put the plywood and the doors on , then paint it.

waiting on my drill bit to come from hongkong so "chompers" can drill it for me.

haha, My brother cut them at a angle, we just had to even it out a little
its pretty much level, gona have to adjust it a little bit.

I'm taking the pics while I was drinking water, brother was in charge of sawing, I was in charge of drilling, measuring and the design.

and i'm afraid i haven't seen your diy threads , would you mind sending me the links.
