The first two photos are of the parts for the side panels and side panel doors. These are the same as the canopy side panels and doors only they are longer. The second two photos are of the side panel and door assembled. These are attached differently than the canopy side panels. In the fifth photo you can see the notches in the sides of the panel. These parts were notched so that they can be used on either side. Only every other notch is used depending on which side it is used on. This allows ...
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 ...
The first photo below is the parts for the barrier between the sump area and the electronics area of the stand. The next photo is the barrier assembled. Next is a photo of the inner stand assembled and glued, bottom view. The next photo is a front view with the barrier imstalled. It has holes drilled and inserts installed to mount modules for the controller. Note the opening near the bottom is for the wires and cables for the sensors. The next photo is a view from the top of the inner stand. The ...
The first photo below shows the post attached to the bottom inner frame assembly. The post are made from 2X4's that have had 1/4 inch planed from the broad side surface. Also the outer side of the post are trimmed down to 3/4" to match a 1X4. This is for attaching the side panels. They match the ones from the canopy which used 1X4 for the post since they do not bear the load of the tank full of water. The inner side of the post have been trimmed at an angle to allow a Sump to be inserted in ...
The first photo is the top inner frame parts of the stand. It has been notched with the router for the six post. The inner sides of the post have been trimmed to make room for a wider sump. It can be placed in either of two positions. To do this two of the post had to be trimmed on both sides. The parts stacked to the right in the photo are for the bottom frame. The next two photos are of the top frame one of each side. The next photo is of the bottom inner frame parts of the stand. You can see ...
