Picked up a 125, needs work!

Here's a pic of the 2x2x4 in the back of my car. It's funny how things like this look much larger in person.

I'm with you man.. my 4x2x2 has 1/2 glass as well.. my wife kept asking why I brought my brother to help move it since she was there.. I just smiled and laughed.

125:

120 getting the frame and silicone removed:

Well I really am off my photography game, but this weekend I stripped the framing and all the silicone out of the 4x2x2. Tonight I want to frame up the stand for it. I'm debating whether or not I should go for a total tear down and break all the seams before putting it back together. I'm thinking of using Dow 832 black as my resealing adhesive... and right now the seams are clear... so breaking it down would give me nice seams, but the tank is kind of old and scratched and stuff so I don't know if I can justify all that work. Still thinking.

I think you should just do what you want to do. If you want black seams then go for it! Just keep us posted on the progress. "Go Big or Go Home!"

 

[cvermeulen]

I think I agree. I'm gonna break all the seams, clean out the silicone from teh frames, and rebuild from scratch with the dow adhesive.

I framed up the stand last night. Still no pics. Sorry guys.

So was this like Oakland Booty or 'just turned 18' porn star ass? Or was it more like plumber crack with way too much fur
