Hi,

The wall thickness is 1/4", Over engineered is always good, better safe then sorry. :mrgreen:

Railskinner did you get the BM200 running yet?

Parker 05-12-2008 07:58 PM

Well the cabinet guys weren’t real keen on the way I was planing to drop the tank in so they came up with a better way. They have to rework the cabinets though so it's going to take an extra day.

Heres some updated pictures of the stand construction.

So what is it that your other half is hoping to put on the shelves, and what is it you are hoping for?

Parker 05-15-2008 03:38 AM

If it was up to me they would probably remain empty! lol

I want one of those model ships to put on there.. other then that I don't care..

My wife wants decorative things on the shelves.. things for me to dust as cleaning the basement is my responsibility

michika 05-15-2008 03:44 AM

I vote that its your tank, and your cleaning responsibility, thus your space. Would you get one of those ships in a bottle kind of things or a non-bottled ship?

I really like how you've used the space, and the color I love it. I would love to do something like that for one of my future tanks, but knowing me, I would fill all the space with books, and still need more shelves! Still though, a ship, sounds pretty cool.
