afboundguy's 35 gallon and display fuge build!!!

That control board came out the Balls.
Wait till it's painted and finalized. Going to look awesome with the logo. Plus it's chaulkboard so I can basically write anything I want on it with chaulk or liquid chaulk :cool:
 
Was home for lunch and heard the familiar honking UPS drivers do and was surprised that my order of PVC parts for mixing station came so quickly! I ordered through 247garden and I have ordered many times and the prices are amazing and the orders get here super fast!

Got a tablet mount for the Chromebook that will be on and it isn't totally flush with the controller board and slightly angled and I wasn't sure how I would like it but I have no issues with it and like the flexibility this mount gives me!

That control panel looks so neat, that's good work Dave
Thanks! Once I paint it and get the awesome little thing @Chris.Reef was able to print for me while my printers continue to gather dust will look awesome :cool:

It will look even better once I hook it all up to!:ROFLMAO:
 
Painted the trim of the custom controller board a semi-gloss black. It's better than it was but might repaint it a flat black in the future.

Checked the length of most of the sense port items to see if I will need any extension cables and should be all set. Might need two whenever I get the water changing station up and running!

I ordered a couple of different black surge protectors as the one I have now is awesome but it's yellow so it would stick out like a sore thumb. Not sure if I'll mount the new surge protector to the outside or inside of the side trim. Ideally I would like it inside but I'll have to play around with it once I get them both in my hands.

I plan to drill holes in the bottom of each side trim for wire management purposes to tidy it up. I did mount the Kraken's PSU with 1/2" aluminum spacers to allow for better cooling!
