    Eric:

    do you have any pictures?

    I built a wooden dart tank, 36 x 18 x 25 and put sliding doors in but have had a beast of a time keeping flies in.

    Thanks

    I will have to try to get some. Unfortunatly when I built them I didnt take pics in the process. you need to do a small slit down the center of the track about 3/8th inch to slide the tank trim into. I have some extra track for 1/8th in glass I may be able to spare. Are you working on just one 40B?

    edit:should have gone back and read again, 2 40B verts.

    did my best to show what it looks like afterwards. I also inverted a peice of trim ontop of the lower retaining wall to give the track a nice thick, level, solid platform but you have to use 1/8th inch for that so the trim fits onto it as well. I know its kinda thin for the bottom peice but I have not broke any yet ( knock on wood )

    also my 30 breeders had trim to thick on them So I had to do it slightly differnt and place extra track on the side so there was a good fit and place it all inside the trim
