You're selling it!
NO NO NO NO!!!! I almost sold it. I posted it on RC to see what response I would get and I got swarmed. but then me and the wife talked it over and found a wall that will work. so tomorrow I am paying movers to move it to a storage shed for the month while I get the floor built up (the new wall it will go against is easy to get under) so ....... THE TANK STAYS!!! I will however build a lower stand. this stand is exactly 42 inches tall its a monster. but if anyone wants to come over and help with the floor and the stand like I said I will pay for the room and feed you all and drinks are on me!!!!!! and I am sure you all would be leaving with pockets full of frags!!!!!!
just let me know when a few days in advance !! i will probably drive up, so i will need some notice.
*whew*
So, you got a lot of responses, hey?
yeah I go bombarded with people wanting the tank. I had a guy from newjersey gonna fly down rent a uhaul and drive it back. but I had it listed for 500.00 so it was a heck of a deal
Ahh, the $500 "frustration" price. :)
First off I want to give my wife credit for this idea. I cannot bieleve I did not think of this. I am by no means a carpenter so I need some input as to the difficulty of this task. my den/frag room has a closet and the other side of that closet is the wall that I want to put the new tank. so my wife said "hey lets knock out that wall and do a wall tank!!! So what I want to do is cut out the dimensions of the tank (just the tank no stand no canopy no nothing) and make it so that its flush with the wall in the living room. so it looks almost like a painting or what not. I want to put a molding frame around it to finish it off and want to put a shelf all the way across the bottom sort of like a bar and then put a couple of stools there. Now on the other side (my den) I would like it to be finished as well so it has a nice look in the frag room/den. I can easily reinforce the floor its very very accesible. this wall is not load bearing at all its just a plain ole wall. I have attached pics. 2 of the living room and the closet in the fragroom/den. I need some thoughts input and advice on this. I would like to get this started pretty quick. Once again invitations still stand on helping me out on this :D
ARE YOU FREAKIN KIDDING ME ?? HOLY CRAP, MAN THAT IS GONNA BE SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET !!
so i guess you WILL be sending me all of that crown molding after all !!
LOL. actually what I want to do is still use the canopy and the stand (if possible) may have to do some adjusting so that the nice stand and canopy are visible from my den. I really dont this should be too hard.
