Fish Room Redux - 3600+ Gallon Plywood Tank Build
- Thread starter nolapete
- Start date
Ken from SELAS was over tonight to help out with the ceiling demolition. My roommate took some pics with my camera, which I can't find now, and his phone, so it'll be tomorrow before I post any new pics.
We took down the ceiling fans, the ceiling sheetrock and insulation, and the framing around the attic stairs. Ken removed all the drywall screws from the front wall 2x4s very quickly with his cordless drill.
We cut the 2x6s for the outer casing around the acrylic window then worked out the logistics on the header for the load bearing wall. I need to pick up some 3" screws and move the existing wiring from the front wall, so we couldn't do anything else tonight. We worked out what we need for the next step and called it a night.

looking good cant wait to see how this turns out and curious to see if you play guinea pig for the rest of us or not
GD garbage men are lazy. They didn't empty the 5 cans filled with drywall pieces. I'm going to have to haul them to the dump.nolapete;2896167; said:
I hate that too...it could be because its house material and that might be a different special pickup. Call the trash people before you rake your back haulling it yourself
