Making Cube out of 2 x 33G?
I asked this question in the DIY thread on RC:
Is there ANY way to cut apart 2 36" 33G tanks and use the four "36 sides to make a cube (and have a 3' x 3' bottom piece cut)? If it's braced, would the glass used to make regular 33G tanks be thick enough?
I got one answer so far:
The stength of the glass is a function of its area. If the pieces are already from a 36" tank, then they are suitable for a 36", be it cubic or rectangular.
If this is your first DIY tank, I would do some research on construction techniques and tips.
What do people think? Agree? Disagree?
