This will have some modifications on the final assembly, but mostly minor..The first and third photos are of the top frame assebly for the back cover. The corners had to be notched to clear the sides of the back panel on the canopy. The last three photos are of the back cover assembled. As noted earlier the back will not have a panel the top and ...

  2. 42 Gallon Hex build

    The first two photos are the parts of the sides to the back cover. The third photo is of the parts to the back of the back cover. This has been changed since the photo. It now has a solid back. I was going to put a panel in and decided that would not work water from spills that would get in the panel slots of the rails and stiles. I figured that would not be good in the long run and changed it. I don't have a photo of the parts for the back after the change. The forth photo is of the sides and back ...

  3. 42 gallon Hex build

    The first photo is of the parts to the bottom outer frame. The second photo is the parts for the top outer frame. The third photo is the top side of the bottom outer frame assembled. The forth photo is of the bottom of the bottom outer frame assembled. The bottom outer frame is attached to the base of the inner frame with 12 pocket hole screws. There was a strip of 1x2 added in the back after the photo was taken to allow the electrical boxes to be screwed to the bottom frame inside the back cabinet. ...

  4. 42 Gallon Hex build

    The first photo is of one of the back cabinet door's parts. The door was too narrow to have a raised panel so it is a standard panel. There are two doors one on each side. The next three photos are of the parts for the back cabinet that is attached to the back panel. The back panel is the same as the side panels with the exception it has no air vent at the bottom. The fifth photo is the center partition inside the cabinet. This is where the power bars for the controller will be mounted. The partition ...

  5. 42 Gallon Hex build

    The first two photos are of the inner stand with primer. The paint was on in the rest of the photos. The area for the electronics is in black. The sump area or wet area is in white. This theme is used throughout this project. The white area also has a rubber coating. I noticed this stuff at Home Depot and decided to try it. Since this is for experimental reasons of sorts I figured I give it a try. The bottom of the stand is sealed so it should hold water if there is a minor spill. I plan on using ...
