Are you a DIY'er? What diy project have you been working on?

Well slowly planning a big tank for my office/basement and I will be doing quite a bit of DIY for it, namely LEDs, T5s, stand, light rack, Refugiums, auto water changer, possibly some custom overflows and a few other things. Have done in the past my T5s, refugium and some cabinetry for putting in a false wall to hide cords and such.

That amount of acrylic costs about $4, if that. Plus glue $4 to $6. And a piece of metal/magnet about $3. So like $12.

I could make one for free with the scrap Acyrlic and glue I have xD.

 

[Justin144]

if your ever in Denver ill take one for free haha. I could throw in a frag !

What fabric are you using?

 

[FishTV]

What fabric are you using?

I think Joanne's just calls it there craft felt. It's about the same density as the 200 micron I used to order, but way cheaper.
