following on from my previous 2 threads

i decided to go with mr tee's internal overflow design (the triangular one)
now its all sitting curing nicely along with my tank connector in my now drilled tank

but after looking and looking and looking iv started scratchin my head and need ur help for a solution

ive done the triangular internal design BUT.. how on earth am i going to be able to support it while it sets and the silicone dries bear in mind the tank is full and been drained down about a quater or so for this work to be done:confused:

duct tape, sellotape, insulation tape, suckers and cable ties. i would do a "copy" of the overflow in cardboard, slightly larger so it encloses the overflow and use one of the tapes to attach. all this late night diy is very stressful but enjoyable with a beer.:D:D:D hope your gonna post some pics also....

[reeves2k2]

yes pics will be up will wait until the thing is all done and get photo's up got a few of the connector in place and the internal overflow made up so itll get one when i attatch the overflow and one all done

late night DIY! you cant beat it i tend to think better at night

i get where you're coming from couple of cans and the ideas flow, my best thinking is done this sort of hour. don't know what that says about my state of mind in the morning? :confused::confused::confused::confused:

[reeves2k2]

haha sometimes i done even need a beer

but then sometimess you wake up in the morning and think "maybe not"

[cl0wn]

worst thinking is when i come in from a night shift thinking can i improve this design, how can i tinker with that, that's it i'm there till 1pm still trying to get to sleep.

your not wrong im still trying to figure out the best way to scape mine after 12 months and it still looks rubbish

i'm getting andy round tomorrow, (expect pics) to do mine he's got a really good eye for scaping. installing reef flush and doing big water change.

[reeves2k2]

yeah! make sure u get some pics up

hink i need some1 to do mine as my eye for it is awful at best

fasten it with some parcel tape,the silicon will set in a couple of hours. i would give it 24hrs before removing the tape.derek
