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.

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.

Drilling a hole for a 1/2" bulk head when the bit caught and that is all she wrote. Not a happy person right now.

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.

Just about completed the stand. Just need to add the felt pads for the bottom so it won't scratch floors.
