**ORIGINAL POST 9/4**

Small update-

The second water test has been a success so far. I filled the tank Saturday night and no leaks. It's been full for 5 days now, so I think I'm good and will assume the tank is water tight at this point. I understand that over time a sub-par joint could develop problems so I will keep my eye on it. To be honest, I'm sure I'll be upgrading, as we all do, again very soon.

I started work on the sump over the weekend. I had my acrylic shop cut all my pieces but realized that my pieces and the baffles are the wrong size. It's my fault as I gave wrong dimensions. Good news is that they are too big. They did an absolute great job of cutting and all their cuts are very precise... which means... I have to also be precise. I've been rough cutting on the table saw to a 1/8 - 1/16" and then finishing to size on the router. I'll continue to work through the week but obviously my focus is on Hurricane Irma at this point.
