Custom Acrylic Work?
I need to build a stand to raise my ATI BM200 protein skimmer in my sump. I would like to have a nice acrylic stand to make this happen. Does anyone know of someone or a place where a little stand like this can be built? Thanks for your help

It is really not hard to do. I just went down to my local acrylic shop "Tap Plastics" and asked them to cut 3 pieces for me. One for the platform and 2 for the legs along with some weld-on liquid acrylic glue and it seals together in minutes.

Wouldn't you need really thick acrylic for that?

It dosn't need to be to think but 1/2" would be good. Does anyone have experience with custom acrylic shops where I can send them dimmensions and they will cut the pieces for me?
