Custom Pine canopy

[strgazr27]

I was originally going to use this on my 75 but have decided to go a different route. The canopy will be finished this weekend unless the buyer wants a specific finish. Currently planning a light stain and semi-gloss finish.

The frame is 2x2 pine. The hood will fit any 48X18 tank. The door openings are just under 6" X 14". The both have adjustable magnetic clasps. The top of the canopy opens and is fixed by a full length chrome plated piano hinge and magnetic catch. 2 4.5" 120v fans are mounted. They are currently setup to run with one pushing air in and one pulling air out across the length of the canopy. These will be wired and ready to go when the canopy is picked up/delivered. interior can be painted with KILZ primer if you'd like before delivery.

This is a very well made hood featuring glue/pocket screw construction.

I would like to at least cover the cost of materials.

Asking $170.00 or TRADE for high quality RO/DI unit.

Any question send me a PM.

Thanks!

With the fans removed I know for a fact it will as it was built to originally house a 4X54 TEK T5. I than went MH Retro and added the fans. I changed my mind one last time and bought a Current outer orbit which unfortunately doesn't fit within this housing as nicely as the TEK did. I can modify the side fan vents so they are still in place. For an extra couple of bucks I could make up a bracket to hold the fans along the back of the canopy pulling in cool air or venting out warm air. That's up to you.

Thanks for your interest.

A 6 will likely fir but I doubt you would have any useable access to the tank at that point. As much as I want it sold, I wouldn't say yeah and have it not fit or you be happy with it. Shoot me the measurements and I will look into it for you.
