| Sorry gang didn't mean to keep everyone in suspense. I don't access my email on the weekends.
Tank is ready to be drilled but like Otty said it will have to wait until Wednesday night. Good thing because I was a lot further away from getting the tank off the stand than I thought.
Matt the bit showed up Friday night. Who hoo!!! Thanks again for sending that right to me.
I'm ready to take the plunge on this whole deal...
Overflows showed up Saturday as hoped. Guess the good ole government came through!!! They did manage to crack one of the overflows at the top where the "teeth" are to let water through. No big deal though becasue they're too tall anyhow so after I shave a little off the top they should be fine. Worst case scenario I can take the whole "tooth" off and move more water over them... _________ Kris

| Yea probably can't get off work. They tell me I already get more days off than Santa Claus.
Think I might have a guy coming to look at our boat this weekend. Might have to turn that 180 into a sump or even better a fuge... |
