It was confirmed today that the project appears to be a GO and unless something unexpected happens I plan to document it here as a full separate thread.  Waiting to hear from the interior decorator about decor to compliment styles with.

What is it?  It is only two aquarium stands  for a mountain home.  One will be designed for a custom built 1,000 gallon (approximate) saltwater aquarium and also for a smaller 220 gallon.

Hope you will stick around for the ride.

Cool.
Good thing you have your space/shop to work in.

Working in the front yard would have sucked for sure  [scared].

It has been some time since I added to this thread.  That's been because there hasn't been any business on this end.  Bummer.  BUT when I was at JLCLive and the Festool Connect event I was waiting to hear about a major project.  It was confirmed today that the project appears to be a GO and unless something unexpected happens I plan to document it here as a full separate thread.  Waiting to hear from the interior decorator about decor to compliment styles with.

congrats peter.
1000 gallons. thats a lot. a us gallon is 2.5 liters isnt it. thats going to weight a lot . going to need some serious structure under that

Just under 4 litres per US gallon .... but regardless - 4 cubic metres !!!

(264 gallons would fill a cubic meter)

The filtration system alone will be a monster.

What are they going to keep in there ? Mermaids ?

Kev,

the filtration system should be in the neighborhood of 300 - 350 gallons and will be sitting under the tank on the floor (the stand doesn't have a bottom).
