Re: Doc's Shark Tank

 Now then, I feel better. I will get back to my piece of  stand. I will have to learn to cope with "good enough".-Doc Current Aquarium(s) Description: 210 gal "Shark Reef" With Angelfish and 90 gal reef tank Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: long enough to know I have a lot to learn

Re: Doc's Shark Tank
well, it is as good as it will get. I got sick of trying to measure and remeasure and remove molding and well.... it doesn't matter. So, this is how it turned out:
 Here it is, without the doors.  The doors were a problem. I had no idea how to install them. I don't do hinges, I am not a fan of all of the balancing of trying swing a door properly. I decided to put some decoration on the outside....  Doors done. I think I cut the molding correctly to fit the frayed edges of the bead-board I used for the finish work. I had an moment of genius regarding the doors. Here it is.....  No worries with me trying to put hinges or hang a door. velcro baby!!! -Doc Current Aquarium(s) Description: 210 gal "Shark Reef" With Angelfish and 90 gal reef tank Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: long enough to know I have a lot to learn
