    All that banter about your chaps and you STILL ask about a hard object....you're a better man then me!

    Seriuosly though it looks like a great project and I think that you're a great guy to help.

    I saw this in another post and thought I'd post it for the project, I know I'll use it the next time I move my tank. Guess the only down fall is the changeing the scape on the fly is gone!

    OK.....if you can all get your minds off those chaps for a second, I just want to let you know I'll be draining the tank of the tap water today and start putting together the frame for the live rock. I know the design will be changed a zillion times but will post pictures of the progress. And if anyone can offer some advice on the project, PLEASE DO! I have no talent for engineering so this will be interesting :-/ Alright, back to our regularly scheduled program.................................[​IMG]

    Just a quick update and a few pics. Finally got a concrete bit for the drill and all other supplies so I'll now start to build the frame for the rockwork. This "cooked" rock will be hung on the arch and sides of the frame:

    And most of the live rock from my 75g will be added at the base of the PVC frame. Should have enough twisties for the job:

    And last (but not least) a drill with a very long concrete bit.

    I'll let you know how many holes I drill into the floor! ;D Kas
