Another Plywood Build, for my bass

[MaddMaxx]

Ok, today it got a few things done.

1. I got a couple of blue coats inside of the canopy and lid.

2. I got 2 coats of stain on the outside of the tank plywood.

3. Modified the spray bar so that it will be JUST under the water surface to reduce the sound of the returning water.

Here's a few photos.

Did you remove your top brace to coat it?

No, the top brace was fully coated and fitted long ago, before I installed the glass. The part that I coated this time was the canopy which is seperate from the tank.

Ok, I got confused by the pics. I was thinking that it would be pretty ballsy to remove it with 3/4 of a tank of water.

Yeah, and as you'll know from reading through this thread, I am a little short on being ballsy when it comes to this much water

Yeah, that's why I was shocked initially

It is official. The tank build is finished. I got all the trim fitted today. I am still waiting for the correct substrate to arrive, as my LFS ordered 10 bags of the wrong size (for the second time this week). I think I will work on the sump tomorrow.

Here's some photos from today...
