Cuvet Holder

So after nearly breaking my cuvets twice today I decided to make a holder out of pvc pipe and acrylic. Hopefully this will offset my clumsiness.

I love this idea. I wish I would have though of that. However, I did find a guy in St. Louis that 3D prints a lot of items for reef keepers. His website is
http://printedreefingsolutions.com/t/organization. I bought a few things from him and I love them.

Wow. That is cool. It makes me want to go out and get a 3d printer. I can think of tons of things I can do with one.

He has some great ideas on the website. I am going to contact them to see how thick of glass the frag holders are rated for. My glass is THICK. It's a brace-less 220g. I think it's 3/4" glass. It's an old oceanic tank.

Not very thick. those are cheap ceramic magnets which don't have nearly the same pull strength as rare earth, which is what I use.
