New 14 inch diameter X 20" tall
by mikebike Sun Oct 20, 2013 2:36 pm
A fellow on Craigslist was selling some acrylic cylineders 14" in diameter.
So I contacted him and bought one and had him glue in a bottom and cut a top.
I how have a new round tank to build.
I want to drill the bottom and put a drain in to my sump - bought that too<G>
I hope to incoporate a center drain and overflow into the sump.
I will add photos as it goes together.
PS: does the composer have a spell check?
Cheers
Mike

I have to get a few parts before I can start assembly.
I intend to have a float valve to prevent sump overflow on the drain, but need to read up on sumps as I have nevery used one before.

Spell check?
it will underline and potentially miss-spelled words and you then highlight the word and right click on it, that will give you potential options. If it's a long winded post I compose it in Microsoft word and past it in after all of my thousand misspelled words are corrected.
