I used a router with a flush-cut bit on my stand.

If you do get a new blade ask about a Carbide Triple Chip blade at the hardware store.

Thanks for the advice. I did pickup a carbide blade for the circular saw and with guides it does a great job!

Anyways, I've been pretty busy many things...the tank being one of them thankfully.

A lot of updates all at once:

Glad my advice helped out. Until someone told me, I didn't even know my circular saw came with an edge guard!

And a great job so far, I like the return manifold, identical to mine but with 5 loclines instead of 7, my tank is 6 feet.

Looks great

I'd estimate that after losses maybe 1000 of ther 1500 gph are making it into the tank. So at the nozzles, you can't really feel too much pressure.

Should i toss a couple seios in there? would people recommend the tunze looking ones or the ones closer to powerheads?
