well it starts quite simple made to redecorate room so thought might as well do cab as well
tank is situated in the alcove of the living room right at the side of the chimney breast so when the tank was in it looked really funny having a big void over the tank ruffly 3 foot high by 5 foot 4 inch so rattled brain well kind of and was told to build a folse wall over the tank ok no problem i thought (big mistake)
re thought this through over heat is all i could think about so the only thing was doors but how do you make doors look invisible well here is my effort

so of came the four bottom doors and the three draws i so loving built on whent the pine i stained with two access doors on top of the tank and two large doors above them access is easily obtained and its flush to the chimney
