Yes they do go up there sometimes. But for the most part it's the clowns and small angels that go there.

Nice build dude, honestly I had my doubts from the begining but the way its looking now I would have to say it is coming together nicely. I am not sure if I missed it or not but did you ever thought about putting sand in the compartment making sorta like a dsb filteration? Just curious, sorry if I have missed it.

Thanks for sharing and I really love the photos. Please keep them coming.
