I will send you my plans if you are keen :lol: :lol:

I have never tried to cut a "U" shape before but if i try and fail then off to the glass place with a piece for them to cut. I have plans already through Google Sketchup :lol: Is it breach of copy right laws if i copy the design a little bit?

I looked on the website and they do not come standard with a heater. I think i might just make one instead, have to glass and wood for it.

I would use plywood then coat it with a sealer, will last alot longer

Can i enquire to who you work for and how long you have been working for them. I am aiming for that position one day, a long way off but i can dream. Good job :bounce:

Seems to me that they just reinvented the pond. I swim in my parents pond all the time great on a hot day, you get over seeing all the fish swim passed and all the other bugs and stuff.

When there is a 6.9 earthquake in Mosgiel i am going sit and watch. Think i will go with the wood approac, give me an excuse to use a nailgun

There is going to be plywood on the outside so should be sweet with bracing. The tank is 1500mmx760mmx600mm, i was thinking it was a bit overkill, especially after looking on some american sites and seeing what the put on four legs!

Track down some flexiable conduit(sp) hose from M10 or Bunnings. It is the same stuff theat fluval use for there filters but will be white instead or grey. Works a treat and is nice and flexi with out kinking

I think either way i would cover with plywood to finish it off

Ok fishy friends, I have a 600l tank that i want to get a stand made for, I have a decision to make, Wood or Metal. I am very happy to make a wooden stand for the tank from the picture below But i have a friend who is a fantastic welder and can get box steel from his work, he can create the stand from the picture below. I can buy the timber for about $150 and put it together for fairly cheaply, i can get all the steel for about $200. I think the wooden stand is over engineered but i dont really mind that. So what do people think? I guess i would have to buy some paint to cover the metal so rust was not an issue but besides that i am stuck. Help me make a decision please.

SO CUTE!

Well said

WELCOME :bounce: :bounce:

I am a regular user of Bang Sticks, Usually my .17HMR to get bunnioes out the 150m. Last big game trip was a nice young spiker with my .270 down south. Have got MGS (multiple gun syndrome) as well as to many tanks. Am waiting for the entry papers for the Easter Bunny Hunt in Alexandra to come in. A great time and doing to country a service.

i would get a sheet of 18mm ply from m10 or somewhere for about $60, better to be safe then sorry

I would get the correct size board and lay it on top of the other board. Better safe then sorry for that size tank

Man that is a tough one, even for IT professionals to anwser. I will have a chat to my boss who is the CIO of a DHB.

She is so cute! If you don't mind me asking, but how much did you pay for her? I am on the waiting list at: BRIENZ Kennels Schallenberg Bernese Barbera Tate (not sure of kennel name) SILVRETTA Kennels Have you had any problems with your girl, i know from all the reading i have done that the are prone to health problems.

Thats is some great advice. Thank you. Will keep the crate training and was thinking of a run/kennel anyway so will sort that out as well.

Navarre, what kind of setup do you have from housing all your dogs? I have crate trained my last two dogs and found they really like having a place for themselves. Can crate training be upscaled to a run/kennel type situation?
