MattNoir Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Nice! I wish I was crafty like that. Though I do find myself wanting power tools whenever I venture in to Lowes with no idea how to use them or what they're for. Must be programmed in to my brain. Can't wait to see it finished and the tank up and running. Link to comment
Haelstrom Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Thanks. Its a lot of trial and error. Trick to wood working is to learn how to cover your mistakes. Link to comment
Haelstrom Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 Worked on the stand a lot this past week. 3 Coates of stain and the first coat of poly. Doors are built, stained and first coate of poly. Painted the back black so it's not so visible when you walk by the side of it. Link to comment

Haelstrom Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 Looking to a LFS to see if they can replace the glass and drill it for me. But the wife has approved purchase of a new one if need be. Link to comment
Haelstrom Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Just about completed the stand. Just need to add the felt pads for the bottom so it won't scratch floors. Link to comment
