Andy at the Blue Glow has been amazing.

We originally started with the idea that another vendor on here had for frag racks that stack in a bucket. However his racks were slightly too big for the tank we have.

Then we saw The Blue Glow was doing custom racks. We PM'd him and he replied back immediately. He made some great improvements on the original idea that we brought to him. Within a day he had a couple different CAD drawings for us. Here is the one that we decided on:

We loved that each rack holds 45 frags. We can fit 180 frags with room to spare in our 12 gallon tank. We also loved that Andy added a base to the whole thing to keep the 4 racks from moving around when stacked in the bucket.

Andy had this guy built and in the mail in 2 days. We're just one state away so it got to us super fast.

Here's what it looks like in our tank. First, all stacked up like it was just pulled out of the bucket:

And second, all 4 racks unstacked in our tank, minus the base:

We are more than please with the finished product. Andy had the best communication through the whole process and this whole thing just felt too good to be true. Now that I have it and see it is as good as his original drawing, I'm absolutely amazed with the whole process! I would do business again and suggest everyone else does too! :)
 
Thanks very much Erika! It was a pleasure working with you and I am glad you like your new racks!:)

Oh man, you shouldn't post your blue prints or machinists might steal your designs! haha
 
I have bought frag rack and top down boxes from Andy, his work is very clean and nice. Communication is clear and nice as well. I am not at all surprised that you all are happy with his product.
