Hello everyone! I just purchased a used acrylic tank. The dimensions are 7ft long x 2ft wide x 1ft deep. The tank thickness is 1/2"-5/8". It has beveled edges so it's a little harder to get an exact measurement. The tanked is bowed out towards the middle of thank. It bowes out about 1". in the middle the width of the tank is 25" as opposed to 24". Can I just clamp it, pull it in 1" and then use weld on #3 or weld on #4? OR is it better just to brace it how it is so it will not flex any further. I just do not wish to add stress to the tank by clamping it "black into place".
Is weld on #3 or #4 the best to use? (The bracing that I have is 1/2" thick. I have enough scrap acrylic to cut 2 braces)
Thanks in advance.
Zach
