My club members came over a couple of days ago, and decided to finish the woodwork for me.

Pictures will be posted shortly.

Decided to finish the woodwork FOR YOU?
 
Some people just aren't very patient. But, in their credit, they didn't just give me a hard time but instead stepped up to make the difference. I can't believe it. The woodwork is actually done, before the tank turned two years old.
 
After the meeting Wednesday night, a few club members came over to see the tank. They decided the woodwork could not wait another minute, and got busy.

Here are a series of close ups to show you the incredible detail.

They worked quickly, methodically, and quietly.

What impressed me most is how it blends in so well with the rest of the room.

Finally, a full tank shot.

And a closeup of the scroll work.

Yeah, that's about right.

Don't worry I'm going to a P.A.E.W.M.T.F.T.F.W meeting tonight and they won't be happy about you mocking us.

Don't make us come down there! ;)
 
It's nice to be able to recognize and appreciate the work of a true craftsman (craftsperson?) but to have them donate such work in the name of getting it done . . . well, my hat's off to you Marc.

I love the way this one drips over the rock. Want to swap it for a hamster?

Hey, you have a hamster? Cool.

And this is why this thread is so long. ;)

Yes. my son has a hampster - which he is teaching to deep dive and eat bubble algae. By the time it is fully trained Marc will be sending video production teams over here for his podcast.

I have noticed that both zeo and prodi are fabulous hamster shampoos:)
