Since I piped my ATO to the vats in the back room of the basement, I decided to removed the ATO tank and make an acrylic / plexiglass shelf.

You need the following:

SimbaLux Acrylic Sheet Clear Cast Plexiglass 12" x 12" Square Panel 1/2" Thick (13mm) Transparent Plastic Plexi Glass Board with Protective Paper



Bosch T102BF 3-Piece 2-5/8 In. 13 TPI Clean for Plexiglas Bi-Metal Jig Saw Blades

and Glue. I used superglue.

The plexiglass is 12” x 12“ and needs to be cut down to 12” x 10”. And the 12“ x 2” piece needs to be glued to the bottom of the 12” x 10” along the 12” side .

works like a champ!!
