Adam, is battlecorals your full time job? I imagine it would difficult doing a build of this size not being your full time.
That's another good question my friend. This project was actually my last job working construction with me dear old Dad. Been working together since the 90's and you might say this was our "swan song" lol. Of course I'll help him out anytime he needs me, but I just didn't have the time to do both anymore. I had to channel my efforts on my business and future. When he retires in another year or two, that will mark the end of Derickson Builders Inc.
And, how about an actual current update as long as I'm typing!
Here's the original sump. 120" x 42" x 18". 3/4 " glass. I'll say, if it wasn't going upstairs I'd have used it for sure, but there was a really odd ding in the lower corner, and I just wasn't comfortable with it at all.
Actually curious to hear what any glass experts might have to say about it.
I toiled for a day and the unfortunate part was that they were covered up completely till the day before we lifted them up, so I had to scramble, and decided not to use it. After we closed up the front there was no getting it up there.
Anyone out there willing to take a chance on it let me
know
