    I'm treating with Lanthanum Chloride and later with the extra GFO. Muriatic acid kind of scared me but maybe a fear I should overcome.

    It can drop phosphates with the proper mix. Only downfall is you have to use a 10 micron, yes I said 10 not 100, sock to catch the clumps.

    When a build is slow and budgeted, its hard to post or send updates when there is nothing to update. Is it possible to work on a build without spending money or it only has to happen when money or packages arrive?

    Well I am looking at the ceiling and I am wondering how I am going to hang my light rack.

    Here is the light rack for now. [​IMG]

    I want to place a 1/2" plywood in the center and cut out the places where the lights will reside. Input is greatly appreciated on that idea also.

    Since I don't have a good stud finder, I took a small jewel screw driver and stuck about 100 small holes in my ceiling until I his the joists(I hope that's what they are called). When I found the joist then I places the green flags on each side to where they end. [​IMG][​IMG]

    Since I can't bend my neck for it being fused, I only did one side. I will do the other side once the neck relaxes.

    What do you think?
