I would agree with you except she likes her fish upstairs where when can see them more often. I've already offered the other side to her and she passed

Thanks man! Lol I told you guys it would go fast once I got to it. 8 days from cutting to test fill isn't too bad I don't think lol.
If any of you have questions on something I might have missed a picture of let me know and I'll try to go out and get them while I can still get my camera inside the tanks.
If the tanks tanks stay don't leak from sat-wens then wens I'll build a stand and get it filled downstairs by next weekend. Hopefully have my bass in one of the tanks in 2-3weeks
Wow! That was fast! Can't wait to come see them :beer:

Don't come over tomorrow just in case its a total fail lol
I may get a bug in my butt and build one stand tonight. I figure it will be easier to see leaks and also easier to shim the stand to level rather than trying to shim the tank
Still have about 2.5" of Weldon left in the bottom of the jug
Id wait it out a couple days and let those bad boys cure the full 72hrs, nothing worse than rushing it if it were me im wait till ne t saturday lol...y dont u finish both stands before test fills....

By tomorrow it will be in the 60-70 hours since the last joint was poured and those were the top joints, most of the main joints were poured 4-7 days ago that's why I feel safe with filling it up tomorrow. Let me know if you STRONGLY suggest that I shouldn't put water in it tomorrow? The stands will be 40" all and 30" front to back so they won't fit down into the basement in full size but I've designed/ stolen a design that I can easily break the stands down into 3 sections so I'll build the top section before the test fill and set it on the garage floor then put the tank on it and fill it up
Picked up the wood for 1 stand tonight
I would have to agree to let them cure and not rush it. With the progress you made in such a short time I would start working on the stands, place the tanks on the stands and do your test fill like you stated. Great looking work and you really don't mess around.
