You sure are a handy man, bro!

Thanks! yup I also build engines

my dad always told me that I should learn how to do things my self and not depend on others to get a job done.

Thank you!

Looking sweet!! How tall is your stand, tank, and canopy? My build is similar and would like to get an idea of what it will look like

Nice man! What's your plan on skinning the steel stand? I'm trying to figure that out for myself too

Thank you! I'm going to build a frame with 3/4 inch wood that goes around the steel stand

I cant wait to see the wood doors (or are you?), any reason why you choose to expose the water line with canopy?

That wood is gorgeous. Did you get it from HD? Did you get the fine quality project wood they have in the back next to the moulding?

Yes, I will add doors. I want to learn how to do raised panel doors. I chose to expose the waterline for cleaning purposes and because I like it. I want to see the wave and surface agitation.

thanks! yes but at Lowes. I heard that theres a really good lumber yard that is cheaper than lower and HD and has better wood.

There are two. One is in riverside on spruce and I think chicago. I have not been there. But there is an amazing place in upland that you can get specialty woods at a higher price.

Ganahl is still my go to place for general wood working, but the place in riverside is pretty phenomenal.

We should go sometime. Theyre only open weekdays though.

Added cross members for lighting and mounted the 4 t5s. Definitely need reflectors for these bulbs. I ordered some clip on reflectors. My hydra 52s will go down the middle.
