Stand assembled in place:




No shimming required!


Insulation foam:


This build has been clipping along at a pretty ridiculous pace. For instance, all the cuts were made for the stand on one day. The next day the entire thing was painted and I finally got it assembled in the room at 11:00 that night. This is my tired face:



With the stand in place I was able to pick up the tank from the local freight depot, which was conveniently just up the street from me. That being said, if I had one complaint about Miracles, it was that they crated the tank TOO well. Even though the tank was only 30" wide, it would not fit in the bed of our truck. My father and I ended up going on a wild goose chase all over the city to eventually rent a U-haul just to get it home!


I just had to take a peek!
