Thanks. I don't know if we are going with a high gloss but maybe just a slight gloss. Not sure yet.

Possibly. But not for at least a year and it would most likely be a few years from now. I really don't know but I am going to be doing everything I can to stay here and not have to go back. Not just because of the tank (although that will be a huge reason) but also because I just really prefer living in Canada

I have to tear apart my basement suite today anyway so I will have tools out.
OK, thanks for the offer...The problem is, I am so busy the next few days and I am not sure about how I would find a lot of time to get out there (I don't have a car anymore). I will have to see check today exactly where the tank is not level. I think its fine from right to left but its just the 1/4" from front to back.

I have shimmed tanks before with primed wood shims but its such a pain. I may end up doing that again here though, so I can do it myself when I get a chance (which would be today). I will let you know.

Thanks again for the offer though, its very kind of you
