Thank you very much Remy. +Rep for the find. =]
So I showed up at my house this afternoon, only to see a nice big thin cardboard box sitting aside my couch. MY ACRYLIC HAS ARRIVED!
The sizes compared to my couch.
The 2 sample piece that will be used as bolt mounts.
I really do NOT understand why UPS does not know how to read. All over the bow it has "handle with care" stickers, "glass" stickers, and "fragile" stickers. And guess what, they still broke my piece.
At least I am cutting off some excess of the acrylic to fit my exact dimensions, so the broken corner doesn't matter to the mod, but it still matters. I am sending UPS an email tomorrow morning, with pictures and all. Not expecting anything, but showing them that they need better service. I mean, what if I was using all the acrylic on something. Then I would be screwed.
I also went to Home Depot and the pet store I work at today and picked up some goodies. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
4x 8mm wingnuts:
4x 8mm bolts:
4x 1/2" barbs (inner threaded):
2x 1/2" threaded nipples:
Power head:
Perfectly fits a hose. :D
2x 5/8" barbs:
A little piece of sheet metal:
1" drill bit:
4"x2' ABS SCH 40 cut pipe:
2x 4 1/2" ABS SCH pipe ends:
And that's all I got for you today. I am going to order the acrylic strip heater in the very near future. I also am getting some computer components donated to me for free by one of my tech teachers. Not sure what he is throwing my way, but lets hope its something good.
interesting :) got a sweet quote from you remy bahahaha
