If I had to do that much work for my tank, I think I would talk myself out of it! Glad you are enjoying the fun of it all!

Re: Vicki's Melding of Art & Science

I havent worked much on this project for the last few days to much other work load to try to fit it in. So possibly later today or tomorrow if it doesnt rain like it is supposed to I will set the floor drain & supports for it & frame the box for the tunnel to run the Plumbing through for Water & Electrical. I am really tring to get this room weather proof before the rain really starts.

Re: Vicki's Melding of Art & Science

Well I think today I will put the roof headers on & install the floor drain, I might even wrap the room in Visqueen to seal out the weather.

Re: Vicki's Melding of Art & Science

Nice job Jack and that light will do a great job of highlighting the pole

Re: Vicki's Melding of Art & Science

Thanks, I am wondering if the light will reflect the pole once it is on the roof

Re: Vicki's Melding of Art & Science

Worked on it a bit more tonight I jusdt added the blocks between the roof joists & added 2 sides of Facia board. I am going to try to get the roof on by the weekend if the weather holds out & my schedule doesnt get to crazy.
