SFF Fish Tank Computer...

Sounds like a great idea!!!!

(Was just looking around and thought I would put in a little LEGO tips I have a little bit of experience with them )

If you are looking to get solid colors of pieces there are a few places that you can ordere the blocks from in bulk, in specific colors and sizes. These will make it much easier to come up with a color scheme that is more pleasing than the standard rainbow look.

Do not buy those $20 tubs!!!! You are actually getting ripped off due to all the little tiny pieces that you will never use. They are nice to build up a rough draft set of blocks to figure out sizes and shapes, but for finished projects, nothing beats solid colors =)

Good luck and keep with it!!!!!

hey Mark, when you have time to start working in this computer again post some pictures, are you still going to put fishes in there?

I made a bigger one a couple of years ago (about 5 Gal.) and Yes I had fish. This will sit on my desk and be my backup comp. Fish are the best part..
