The Christmas season has been crazy busy...but I've got my sump in place and I've started to un-pack some of my equipment. Here is the latest picture of my efforts.

I ended up getting an Octopus XP-5000 cone at MACNA 2011 when they were clearing out the booths. Got a crazy deal on it! I also got the neck cleaner...but haven't unpacked it yet.

Easy access to everything you're going to love it. What did you finish the floor with?

A heavy duty epoxy for commercial garage floors. We got a great deal on high gloss stuff (guess not too many shops want that wet look) and it came out pretty good. I still have remove the painters tape on the bench legs.

Mark, that's an awesome fish room! (I'm so jealous) My fish room is a closet and part of the garage.

Good thinkin putting a lock on the door to keep the kidlets out...and for peace and quiet in there! Great thinkin keeping the sump off the floor, although you will lose the cooling capacity of the concrete.

And the floor looks AWESOME! I've actually been drooling over modern designed kitchens and living rooms that use a similar looking product on the floor to make the super high gloss white floor. So modern, so schmexy.

Yes lock on door is good but....... Keep the key or spare key near by dont lock yourself out in case of emergency. It happens.. Keypad entry would be a good thing
