Squirt Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Looks good, but what's the splotches? And shouldn't there be the legs right at the end? I'm no builder either so I wouldn't know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuri08 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 just reflections as my tank gets quite abit of sunlight im not a very good painter aswell haha and there is legs right at the back its braced inside and outside with four 4x2s they are spaced 60 cm apart back to front and left to right is 90 cm its super sturdy and i have stood on it and jumped up and down alot to see if any movement wouldnt even budge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-obstacle Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I think the problem is more that the base might flex and the outer edges might fall away from the middle. Glass doesn't bend very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuri08 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 im aware of the bracing mate.i had jackp tell em it was ok when he visited and i showed him how i was doing it and hes a builder so will stick with his knowledge plus i am a glazier so understand fully about glass cheers theres no bending as its 4x2 with 50mm mdf sheet for base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
