Slowly but surely. All the wood filler has done it's job well. Painting is complete and tank and stand are in their new spot. I will have to cover the south window to make sure and limit light coming in. After painting I could not even tell that both of the front corners had been chewed up! I have two old fashioned "scoop" antique pewter handles coming for the doors. I am getting substrate Monday. I will probably begin thinking and designing my "shadowbox" for the back as my next part to complete. Here are pic's of stand finished after painting and moved to it's final home! I love creating and working with new tanks..watching them come together. Any thoughts or suggestions? I like hearing others' ideas. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/k...epairII001.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/k...epairII004.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/k.../75home003.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/k.../75home005.jpg
PS: Ignore the small black dot..it's on my camera !

You have done a beautiful job, its lovely. What little I can see of the room, it looks like a yummie place to curl up with a cup of tea and watch the fish this winter.

I am doing the ebay thing as we speak looking for another camera. The pic did come out a little dark but your right, the couch AND the bed are right there so I can spend lots of time watching them!
