Sorry to hear that, but no we won't be building any tanks.

That would be pretty simple.

Anything is possible, just have to have a plan.

LOL! Sure, I'll just let you pay for the CNC.

Just yourself and some warm work clothes.

I think that's reasonable.

No problem Reet, glad you guys were able to show up!

Thanks Chris, sent you a PM...

My pleasure Murph, glad you guys though the lagoon was cool. I forgot so talk about it, the black back is actually removable even with the bulkheads installed.

Glad to hear it Russ! Hopefully you won't have to get quite as wet.

Josh is the name Close!

Eric, as most have said...thanks for hosting the meeting and showing off your tank. You've got my vote. It really is beautiful.

Also, thanks for the 13gal. I am already making plans for it. Does anyone know of some local custom woodwork options? I have a friend that offered but if time does not permit that to work out I would like to have other options.

Also, is there something I need to do to become an official member? Do I have to be jumped in? I would like to contribute whatever resources are required.

Thanks,

Josh

Was it Josh aka Krafty? Super cool guy, fits right in with the group. We had so many new faces at the meeting again, we really need to get name tags...

Like everyone else, thanks Eric. Sorry had to cut out early and miss the majority of the lesson. Good to meet some of you and next time will allocate the whole time to the meeting. (and not miss out on the cool raffle) Although I save money by not winning the (free) lagoon.

Thanks for hosting the meeting and showing off your nano. Pictuers REALLY don't do it justice. Also thanks for showing off your techniques for working with acrylic.

Eric,

Thanks for hosting and giving such an informative workshop on
acrylic. Thanks also for the generous donations of the aquarium and the salt.

No problem David, hope you had a good time.

My pleasure Robert, hope we got some more funds for the club and can help do something great for the club in the near future.
