The tank is going where the 40 and 20 are just to make it a little more fun. |
What is that tool you are using, and referring to, in your second post?
|
Kreg makes it. Its a drillbit that make pocket holes so the screws are all recessed
|
How did you attach the legs to the stand if they are on top of the base rather than inside the frame?
|
