So I picked up some supplies today and decided to monkey around with the tank/glass.

I think these little do-dads are my new favourite gadgets.



They are made of plastic and rubber so are gentle on the glass. Also, spring loaded for one handed operation. Very handy when you're trying to brace two 1/2" panes of glass.

Also picked up some nylon tape. Will come in handy once it is time to silicone.



I started to visualize my attack vector, mounted the panes of glass and braced them with those corner grippies.







It actually wasn't that bad at all. I will have to make sure that the floor is perfectly even when I'm ready to commit. Probably a sheet of plywood or something. Carpet is not level. Or I will have to haul all that glass upstairs and work on the dining room table.
