Thanks, Lang! It's coming along little by little, its a bit more time consuming than I planed it to be but its worth it

Thanks Mark! No problem anytime :thumbsup:

 

[titoav15]

And the build continues!

 

[titoav15]

Now that the top is done, it’s time to do the sides!

Jeez it seems like the farther I go, the more complex my clamping style is lol

And now its time to step back and take a look to see what it looks like

Impressive work and progress alex! Two thumbs up!

Thanks Pascal! How do you like the two tone combo? It is much more impressive in person, but its red/pink oak trim. I really like the way it this two tone looks (besides the fact that that's the only color that had 1/2" molding that fit the bill of the width of the ply)!

lol, not yet

I am about 80% percent done with the construction of this bad boy. Too bad I can't stain and clear coat it anytime soon until the weather warms up. Mean while will be careful and try not to spill anything on it.

 

[titoav15]

oh and by the way got more stuff in! My ati bulbs and tek light is here
everything was packed amazingly well

 

[titoav15]

Did some more work today, finished the front (all is left is to make the door) Now setting up for the light!

 

[wastememphis]

Great job so far!

 

[titoav15]

Moving right along here. After some creative thinking, I got the mod I wanted to hang the tek light. I think it looks sweet! Still have yet to prime and paint it.

Now to put the light on:

Side view: looks a little crooked because of the wires:

 

[Capt_Cully]

I love it. Coming together nicely!

 

[titoav15]

Great job so far!

Thanks! I am even impressing myself here

 

[titoav15]

Thanks, Mark! So I guess I can say Joes Woodworks, watch out! right? lol I am staining the stand tonight and pipes will have to wait till the warm weather breaks most likely.

After some staining + 3 coats of poly waiting for it to fully dry, this is after 16 hours of drying.

How long should I wait for it to dry before I set my my tank on it? The can says 24 hours before "light use"
