Woodwork looks good. Looks like you're buying all of the good stuff. Good luck with the build.

Any Reason to silicone the bottom pannel to the plywood?

Hello Maroun.

The plywood acts as a second bottom panel this way.It provides both protection and support.

 

[Crazy_Beaver]

Some progress on the balcony cabinet:dance:

Started the stain

Next is the second hand of the stain and the final outdoor protection coat..


Stay tuned!:thumbsup:

Hey Dan,

No unfortunately, I am not on holiday!:headwally:Not yet anyway!:uzi:

I have been very busy with work these days working 12 hours per day so I am not able to do much work on the tank. Further more weekends have been pretty full with other obligation so pace has been slowed down.

On top I will be in Barcelona-Madrid for the next days ( my gift to my other half to balance the new tank:bum so don't expect a lot to happen till next week.


Well I guess that's a price u have to pay when you are doing most of the work by yourself, but I cant complain, I enjoy every bit of it.

Till next time :beer:
