    So what do you think?

    Hi All,
    Thanks for all the complements.
    Greg, I use AutoCad 2000 to do the modeling and rendering.

    Hi,
    I changed the design a little to add a drawer.

    That's fantastic... very original design... Got this for a project in mind or you building for a client?
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    That is really a nice design. I have been designing little sump and fuge ideas but i was looking for a better app that i could design something for my culturing station. going to be setting up a 10 gallon to start culturing my own pods. prices are way to much for pods so i figured if i start my own culture i could help out the reefers and not see them go broke so much just for mandarin food.
