Hate you Still looks the same, I have stored the Redwood outside for the winter and will bring it in and plane it down when the time permits.

YBeNormal March 17, 2007 Share March 17, 2007 It looks like I may be incorporating that same idea into a custom job I'll be starting in a few weeks. Lucky for me everything will be painted black to match the existing stand so I don't have to mess with stain and finish. Depending on the design, I may be hitting you up for some welding. Anything you'd change in the lift system if you were to do it all over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything you'd change in the lift system if you were to do it all over? The only thing I would change is get the remote module, my finger gets tired from holding the rocker button sometimes Also make sure you get a momentary switch or remote so the whole thing doesn't have to lift to the full height every time, this is nice since I just open it about 4" or so to feed and only use the full lift when doing maintenance or fragging corals.

We're not worthy!!! Funny thing is - looking at what you've done - it just plain seems like the RIGHT thing to do. I'm imagining all kinds of other velcro'd panels and stuff; and nothing seems to work. You win! bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
