Spray bars. Already have them, and it was a whole lot less drilling

Thanks for the driftwood trick. I have some acrylic sheeting I can use.

Finishing up tomorrow and Sunday. Was told by the wife that it needs to be done and in the living room sunday night. Pressures on

106 degrees at my house.

This is why I wanted the project done before we hit the 100's. God it is hot! Oh well just means I will be melting off some weight I need to lose.

Braved 104 Degree heat to bring you this Update

First coat not going on too well..............I like it..... Southwest rustic look so now I am dry brushing it.. Slow going but I love the look.

One thing I like about the heat.... Paint dries real fast

More tonight if I live

Last pics of the day..

Got in my driftwood yesterday. Seems rather small now that it is in the tank....

Sanding the stand right now. Gone through almost 20 sheets of sandpaper, and I think my sander is about to blow up.


TANK IS DONE
