It begins

Just thought I would keep you all informed and post a pic as I know you all like them :) .

Fabricated my stand at the weekend 62x24x30 with no legs in the front, so that I can easily have access to the sump.



I am taking it to get powdercoated today.

Then i can get my glass ordered 62x24x36 :D

Hi Pat what are you putting on that stand as it will hold an Elephant m8:D Well made stand if i may say so, are you filling the void on the top with wood as it might trap your fingers when you lift the tank in. Well done :D Eric

Hi eric, i thought that 62x24x36 was the equivalent of an elephant:D , the top will have a couple of layers of ply and polystyrene to level out any imperfections.

it's not the mini services place hedon road is it? Bloke on merfleet lane has a nice light blue restored mini and a red clubman with checked roof, pass them every morning on my way to work, I think he used to have something to do with them years ago when I had mine.
