    With a 72" face, I'm pulling out the Variable Speed Rotary Polisher, I have a Dual Action. If you use a straight rotary be careful on burn in. Take a tip from a guy with a detailer background. If you use a disc sander of any sort and are worried about leaving hot spot type of scratches, the kind that Clark and others mention; then error on the side of larger disc with lighter pressure as opposed to smaller disc with heavier pressure.

     

    good luck Freddyk!  Cant wait to see it.

    I originally thought this thread was spam and someone replied with an ad! haha.  I love instant cycle type products. They are not for every use case, but the ones they do fall into, work as advertised.

    My first real stab at this hobby a friend talked me out of these type of products and sent me home with a bucket full of his sand and water. Boy ohh boy what an instant cycle! lol

    Not too big, not too small, juuust right... build

    The stand I'm not sure who built but I picked up from upscales for an excellent deal. I love the industrial look and magnetic panels.

    The tank is a low iron built by oceans by design.

    Can you say how "excellent" a deal it was? Up here in Seattle, a stand like that doesn't even appear often. I'm not sure if shops up here sell second hand stands like this. Either way, it looks sharp! Ohh yeah, your tank look hella nice too, and is growing! :)

    I'm always on the lookout for interesting critters. If anybody ends up with an unwanted hitchhiker, please let me know before it goes to the toilet. I might be able to give it a home. 

    This is soo cool! I was gonna post something like this exact thing! I wish you well, my friend; Hitchhiker ocean rocks are my favorite. Good luck.

    The tank looks great

    It Does! I see your Plumbing skills are far superior to mine. I learned (along with Google) something new just looking at how you repurposed those predrilled floor holes. 

     

    Thanks!

    Hey, thanks. I peeked at those and was NOT impressed :) 

    Come to think of it, I think I have been talked into doing the 2x4 wood screw diy job. 

     

     

    Edit: Plus, I'll get a custom stand height, because stand height, is EVERYTHING :black_eyed:
