Thanks for this. I actually cut a piece of clear acrylic as a temporary solution. If I can't find a good aluminum frame I will probably do another acrylic piece that has proper cut outs for my equipment. What did you use to cut yours? I bought an acrylic/plexiglass cutter that looks like a glorified box cutter. :)
Clearview lids did my top. They custom fit it to light m I unts also. Little pricy but a nice piece that doesn't take away the ascetic beauty of your tank

Nice! I saw a diy on another site on how to build a laser cutter. I think it used the laser component from a computer dvd writer. I should diy one of those so I can cut my own acrylic sheet for a diy tank lid. LOL
This one is 20x plus more powerful.
A diode laser would likely not cut 3mm acrylic. But I could be wrong
