Getting closer. The stand took forever to prime and paint. I made a spray booth in my basement and put a space heater in there but it still took a month for the primer to dry. Total frustration, but it all worked out. The doors are still drying so in the meantime I filled the tank and checked all the plumbing for leaks. Only had one tiny drip in the manifold.

Assembled the 80/20 light stand that I engineered for the AP700's So far everything is coming along nicely. Should have my rock by next week.
