28g JBJ led Nano

Thanks Jon!
The vent is supposed to be there if you are running the mini chiller that JBJ makes for the 28 and also is intended to be even lower than its shown in my picture. I swapped the stand so the vent was up higher a joke many like to to poke fun at me for building the stand upside down
Although I really did do it on purpose. I did this because the heat given off by the LED driver is significant so I wanted it to be in the vented compartment yet I have the DA ATO coming soon and I didnt want my topoff jug sitting above the electronics in case of leaks.
There is a method to my madness even if it is just madness.

Not yet but this Is the 120 build I started then scraped when it wasn't what I really wanted. I will start the new thread soon. The fish room in the basement will not change just the display. The new tank is accustom miracles starphire 200 which will be viewable from two sides.

Thanks! Its been a long journey but a rewarding one. I have become something of a joke on MASC being the only member since 2009 that had never had a tank up and running up untill a couple monthds ago. Hopefully I will redeem myself in the coming years.
My welding skills have gotten much much better since the original build thread. Mostly impart because of allot of practice but i also starting using a higher powered gas mig( a b-day present from my wife ). I will be getting a 220v 40amp tig machine before too long and a plasma cutter too so I should be able to weld everything from pop cans to 3/4" stainless.
Really looking forward to that!

Well if it does happen if you decide to go with a 120 20amp unit, I highly recomend the hobart handler 140 with the C25 gas hookup. Its basically a millermatic rebaged really well made and reasonably priced. Will also do stainless with reverse polarity and argon. Will do thicker alluminum too but you would need to get a reel gun in addition that costs as much as the welder itself. When the time comes you should come try mine and see how you like it.
