Updates? Well, Christmas came and went! I'm now aiming for Christmas 2013! :lol:
I've actualy done a bit this week, I've got time off with my boy, so we're trying to get it done.
Will post some pics later.

I've nearly finished framing up the front and base sections of the enclosure.

I've changed plans a bit as this has developed, I have to cut and change some of what I did previously.
The cabinet will be three sections.
It will have a base, which will include a pond for the water feature, a sump filter system. It will be glass on two sides plus the front, it will be fully sealed in case the water feature leaks in any way.
The back section as in previous photos will be cut to sit on to the base, otherwise it stays the same.
The front section in the new photo also lifts off the base. It will have a curved glass door in the centre (It's from an old shower screen that inspired me to kick this project off). It will be glass on the front, mostly glass on the sides with vents top and bottom on both sides.
So now I just need to finish some wood work, get some glass cut to size, seal and paint all timber, seal the tank section and set up the filter system, finish building some rocks, finish rendering it all, wire up and fit lights, CHEs, thermostats, LED lights, find some logs and vines etc!!!!!
At the pace I'm working, should be done by Christmas 2016! :lol: Lucky EWDs live a long time!
