Warning - this build will move slowly. For more action, check out my other build.
So the story goes - a friend has a friend who is moving to a cabin off the grid where a tank isn't an option needed to get rid of this monstrosity, and that's where I come in.
I got the tank for free, so I figure I have nothing to lose (knock on wood).
I picked up the tank a couple of months ago, and it was really rough.
On to the build:
Dimensions:
96"x18"x24"
Cons
1.) mystery brand and age. My guess is 6+ years old
2.) had 4 bulkheads on the bottom of the tank (will plug those)
3.) lots of fine scratches and some odd clear crap on the front pane
4.) no stand
Pros
1.) it was free!!
2.) see number 1
3.) the back is black acrylic
4.) hugeness
Here's when I brought it home. Lucky I own a mini van
This is after about 8 hours of sanding, buffing and polishing. Coming along nicely
Here you can see the mystery spatter.. Almost looked like someone spilled clear polyurethane on it..
So I'm all in.. Used a razor blade to scrape off the mystery spatter knowing that would make scratches that I would have to deal with
Stupid bulkheads on the bottom of the tank.. Who does this stuff?
