    Great work on this build! It looks very, very nice. You've obviously been working very hard on it. I'm looking forward to seeing it wet!

    Thank you oldfishkeeper,
    Much appreciated. ATM I am building the doors for the stand DIY and playing with paint+sump.. :) pics soon to come. But my main focus this week will be my controller panel/how I want my wiring laid out in stand.

    Kyle.

    More Pics on my project today.
    Painted all sides+bottom except for front viewing of sump. My preference really and something I've seen no one do.

    Kyle,

    One of my main hobbies is SAILing and racing catamarans; hence Todd_SAILS! Not snails. My last name isn't sails or snails.

    Todd_SAILS- cause I sail, skipper a Nacra F18 Infusion Catamaran sailboat. It's real fast, very physical 'Extreme Sport' kinda of sailing

    And I too like the painted sump. My sump is a 50g Rubbermaid Roughneck container- kinda grey/blue color.

    Thanks for the input. :p

    Thanks Nick, trying my best to take this one slow and make sure all I's have dotted and T's are crossed. I'm going to have this thing cycled and running by July 4th :drummer: ...... maybe before.. who knows hahaha

    Thanks a lot. I'm sure your setup will do the same job as mine. It's such a addicting hobby...:smoking:
