We'll, I've been messing with my scrap wood bin and figured I'd play with some scraps. Well it didn't work out exactly as planned...

I just wanted to slap something together to hold a few things that I "Had"

So I took a measurement of my tank and laid it down real quick without placing it back into it's plastic cover..... well, that didn't work out to good. I walked over to my drill press and started drilling some hole's when all of a sudden, I heard the dreaded sound of my tank hitting the floor...

It fell from my work table which is 32" from the floor.. and she broke in 2 places.. :(

How depressing!

DAMN !!!!!! Wasn't about to grab the other tank with the way my luck was running.


Not Good !!!! MAN.... ......... lol "What a Bone-Head" Guess that's what happens when you Drink and drill....

I feel your pain TH'er. BTW, great woodworking!

I've been getting into DIY juice lately and had to make something to help me keep track of the DIY process which for me involves a lot of little bottles in play while I am working out mix recipes. I bought a bunch of 10, 20, 30, 50 and 100 ml glass bottles. Made this rack for them and some of the plastic I still have:

While I was building it I dropped a bottle or two in my workshop (onto concrete). The only one that broke was a 100 ml which cost me about $1.50 I think. Not a tank, but that feeling of :facepalm: is I think universal. The only people who have never felt it are those who don't do stuff. And I had not yet had my first beer too :unsure:

Sorry about breaking your tank, but that stand is amazing. Guess it could have been worse, you could have drilled yourself instead, DOnT drink and drill:)
