hey, I know im asking really late, but do you think you could make me one? unless in the time you made this thread, you created another tank thats better than the tank you sold in this thread MONTHS ago.
I really like the fact that you have decades of experience and take your customers into depth with your experience on these tanks. I really would like to have the "baby" that you have. The one with the stainless steel endcaps. Let's make it a two-of-a-kind, haha. I know Im asking for alot. But I believe that you will create one of the best, if not the best, quality tank for your customers. Please take the time to consider my wants for your beautifully crafted, and assuming well built and well functioning tank. I wish you could also make the tube a pyrex glass tube. Omg, a stainless steel endcapped pyrex glass tube..with a pyrex glass driptip...all handmade..thats gotta be one of the priciest and most durable tank out there. Since you mentioned you were trying to make these mods "virtually indestructible", wouldn't a tough-... glass tube with stainless steel endcaps do the trick? Please Jon, please consider this. I am so fascinated with tanks its rediculous. I want a collection of them, of the best possibly made U.S. tanks I can get my hands on. Do you take requests? Man, I should tell tank-makers to make pyrex glass tubes with a stainless steel cap on either end. Unless there's a tougher glass and a tougher metal than stainless steel. I really dont know much about glass or metals but I assume that stainless steel and pyrex are two solid materials. What tops those two in their specific categories?
I really wish you could make me my own baby. My own one-of-a-kind. Scratch the two-of-a-kind mention. Mine would be in its own league if you care to make it for me. Which im praying you would. Man! I wish I had experience like you, so I could make many different solid tanks and sell them to eager customers, knowing that I did a good job and knowing that it performs parallel to the BEST tanks the market will EVER have. Well, hope to hear from you soon, an eager customer- Lui Woo.
Kiggas, Jon doesn't take special custom orders. He has posted his progress pictures for the tanks he has for the upcoming sale which is this Friday at 9:00 CST. The trick is to keep an eye out on this thread often, see what tanks he posts for the upcoming sale, have three choices picked out and ready to go, and be fast enough to send your request the moment he posts them on Friday night. I don't know how to send you the link for the rules and FAQ's, but I'm sure someone else will do it when we see you here again.

Cat, how are you this morning? Have things calmed down for you weatherwise? Loved your video...you all looked great!! :)

Hi Ty! I'm doing well. We just got another winter storm warning, but so far so good. Thanks again for watching the video. It was really kinda like a dress rehearsal for us on a gym. Our real performance is for the Portland Trail Blazers game on February 18th. I admit I'll be glad when it's all over. I get these little anxiety attacks. If I was ten or more years younger, I think I'd be okay.

How's your sink fix holding up? Wish I was capable of being my own little "handyman" around here!!!

You will do just wonderful on the 18th Cat...I have a lot of faith in you!! :)

Sink's holding up just fine, thanks. I worked as a Maintenance Tech for 10 years at various manufacturing plants, fixing all kinds of machinery (even lathes Jon :)) and also have 2.5 years as an Electrical Apprentice, so can fix most things, but hate doing too much of that any more, after having to for so many years. It does come in handy sometimes tho.:)
