Ok here is stage one of my picture frame;
I mean it is only small but i am only 15 and i am having a trial run before i make my 125gallon plywood tank (not wall tank),
It is 15x4x8 inches so enjoy i will post more pics once the sylicone has dries and i have set it up.
It is still wet from the sylicone.

the glass is in slots in the wood, so the wood is holding the glass in place and the sylicone is making it water tight, as well as holding it slightly. does this make sense?

Ah, yes it does. I was thinking you actually managed to "glue" the glass to the wood and that is it. Good luck!
 
no it was an old box so i syliconed it and added some glass. lol
 
Looks cool! let us know how it turns out!
 
doesn't look bad, resembles my herp tank i made a while ago, i did the same thing, but I wouldn't trust mine to hold water.

try filling it outside first ;) lol
 
Well i filled it up out side and well lets just say they were no problems.......
Ecept i forgot to seal one of the smaller sides DURRRRRRRRRRRRR !!! lol
So i sealed it today and we are ready for another test tomorrow, lets just hope i'v done it now lol.
