    Toxic's New Sump...... Finally!

    So after 200 designs and redesigns he finally came up with one he wanted. I put that design into reality for him over the weekend.

    Nice, Rick! You need some help polishing that acrylic?

    I'm going to have to save up and have you build one for me. For some reason, I feel like Vanessa is the one I should pay??? lol

    I got to see it on his way home sitting in the trunk of the car. Absolutely amazing design and excellent idea on the fuge light holder. That combo of fuge/return being so large is what makes this design stand out. Really great job! Are we hooking it up this weekend?
