Hey pete! It's been a while! Congrats on your latest build, what a blessing! Get as much sleep as you can and pass on your passion to him! I am expecting the two of you to create some epic builds when he grows up!!!

Your a newbie here. And the more you talk......never mind
And to the other guy, the tank was not even close to being done before he met his wife and had a kid.....Read the thread
Given the problems up to this point with the tank and the builder's new focus (who can blame him), is it time to put this tank and this thread to rest? I'm sure lots of folks would volunteer to help remove the debris and patch up the wall.
Maybe its time to admit that there may be an intractable problem with the tank and its design (or execution). If I were the original poster, I would focus on the new family and get this anchor out of my life.
Do you really want a hole in your wall until after your child graduates from college?

Pete keep up your spirits I knowyou will finish this. Life changes and therefore changes what is most important at the time.I have a couple projects that I want to complete but I have a wedding to plan and get through first.I still intend to finish them but they are not top priority like they where when I was single. Life comes first and people complaining only makes the thread longer (so does people supporting it lol) I will wait for your progress in life and the tank

I just read through this entire build and have to say that I am impressed. Impressed that you undertook such a huge project, and impressed that you have stuck with it despite all the setbacks and naysayers that keep saying to throw in the towel. You've only got a foot left to fill, lets see this thing finished.
I truly don't understand the attitude that some people display.
Pete doesn't owe anybody here anything.
I personally like DIY threads that I can't follow as it happens, rough patches and all. If people only posted their success stories what would we learn?, how would we innovate? If Pete finishes the build and shares it with us all the better. If he rips it out fine but if he finishes it and doesn't share it wouldn't that be a loss to us? I have to ask the people telling him to give up , admit defeat etc have you built a big tank? any tank? started your own DIY build thread? ever had a project go sideways? If not then why try and rain on his parade? Because if you had I don't think that you would say anything beside keep your chin up figure it out and finish it.
