In case you were wondering what I've been up to...

I've been honing my woodworking skills so I can make something presentable for my next tank to sit upon.

I started with custom handles for stand doors.

All natural wood, no dyes

Starting with handles? Looking forward to the hinges thread . Seriously, they are nice. If you're putting this much thought into it I can't wait to see the build!

Wow!

Heh, it's gonna be a while. What I want to build is expensive even with DIY. Still better than paying 6-7k to have someone else do it, though. I can show the plans if you want to see.

 

[Just Jim]

Of course I wanna see em!

I guess Tony doesn't come here often so I'll fill in what I know. His house is getting some remodeling done and they are doing something different with the floor so he can't set up a new tank until the floors are done. I saw him at the swap with Sanjay and he seems to be doing well. He has sent me some pics of flowers as well so I know while his tank is down he's still keeping busy.

Thanks for the info. Good to know there will be a tank hopefully one day soon.
