Received backgrounds for back and side pannels. Went with blue acrylic and leaving the paper on the backside of the acrylic I get this blue variation instead of uniform blue:

The workshop had a laser cut machine so I went with custom overflow comb on the side covers instead if attaching a ready made one on top.



But the teeth felt very weak and I was afraid they'll break after some time so I had them redone as indicated by a fellow reefer here:


Which ended up much stronger. Will play with some LEDs behind the back and adding some paper to try a modified shadow box with the limited space hoping it'll add some more deapth to the tank.
Next steps:
External Overflow and picking up Ceramic rocks tomorrow, Plumbing and a wet test end of this week or beginning of coming one.

Time to bring this thread back to date.
Glass build was finished with the addition of the top side part next to overflow and overflow



Initial plan was for 3 1.5 inch bulkheadsd and 1 1 inch one but the cabinet was a bit thicker than expected so lost 1 of the 1.5" bulkheads.
Overflow placement was a sure receipe for head bumps into it so added some silicone to act as a cushion.

sides background with overflow screen siliconed to glass:






Still have to add the back background hopefully today or tomorrow.
