Myteemouse

So what I did was take 3 1x8's and chop them up and paint them to support the reflectors.
I prolly should have painted the 1x6 that holds the MH reflectors

I may still..








Up next is the FTS with the lights on (my glass is dirty right now)

That looks much much better.

Btw, we don't limit how much you can post in your blog like other sites do. So all your images and text should fit unless you are a serious writer.

Looks great! I really like the contrast in the fts shot. Btw, your rock work is amazing. How did you connect it all?

I recently tried to create a tower with epoxy and plastic coat hangers but the epoxy didn't hold that well.

Thanks Mark..

I used dry rock and great foam..then cured it, then put it in the tank!

Looks great Adam. Now you'll really be able to get your shoulder into your work. Literally.

What is that funny looking blanket you used to cover the tank with?

I think they used snow!

Funny looking blanket??
OH the blue thing over the window??
yea I need to figure out what to do with that half window opening!
Still in the works!

LOL, in the fourth pic down there is side view inside the hood showing the sheet its sitting on. For some crazy reason I thought the hood was still on the tank and you did all of the work in place. It never occured to me that you actully took the hood of the tnak to remodel it, just as did the last time I revamped someones canopy for them.
Im not always the brightest bulb over the tank. I was having a 50K moment.

if you read the last line before the pics it says this is what it used to look like..
the second set of pics is modded
the sheet was to cover the wood floor when we originally got it and was painting and installing lights?.

As a matter of fact I didn't take the hood off just the center support where the lights were hung.
And installed the "risers" in place.
I had it assembled and screws in the waiting when I climbed on the stand to install it.

Its all so confusing.........

uuu first pics original version..
second set modded hood.
about 1 year apart..first pics last year march..
And I didn;t take the hood off to mod it I just removed the center brace and put the new modded center brace back on..

This is just bad blogging. If Doug doesn't get it, you have to do it again.

I may have to start over huh?[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Owner/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.png[/IMG]

I know it's bad form to post pics with dirty glass but here is teh new look with higher lights.

Much better....

Looks sweet. Do you use the regular lumenbrites ? I was thinking of getting the lumenbrite "wides" for my set up. What ballast & bulbs are you using ?

MY lumenbright are 19" with the pendant (black metal) around it..
Also using Electronic Hamilton ballasts.
