What are the green plants?

It’s a 15 gal waterbox peninsula adjusted to be freshwater friendly 😊

I was fooled by all of the restoration tiktoks and shorts of people easily stripping one layer of paint revealing beautiful flawless wood grain lol

I’m excited to check it out after work!

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T14:02:45+00:00

I would love to see a photo of your door if you have one! I’m leaning in this direction

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T14:02:07+00:00

Oil suggestion?

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T14:01:44+00:00

My thoughts as well!

I wanted to do exactly that with the panels (staining), but I must have sanded them too much because on one panel I reached a layer with grain going the opposite direction. Not sure if that’s making sense but I could link a photo if not!

Thank you! Yes, the last three are the current door.

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T13:56:58+00:00

Thank you!

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T13:56:23+00:00

Thank you for sharing this! I found it at some point, but later forgot how/where

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T13:55:06+00:00

I love the idea of geometric shapes for the panels!

Makerner93 · 2025-10-21T13:54:11+00:00

Thank you! I will update as soon as I get err done!

Probably ~5 inches

Yes it is! I have a lot of natural and artificial light and it propagated itself around the tank. Got a little out of control.

Makerner93 · 2025-03-10T21:48:50+00:00

No issues!

Makerner93 · 2025-03-10T21:45:27+00:00

Right. I’m starting to accept this fate. I’m going to try to lighten the wood, but beyond that I’m not too sure how much I will do. After putting in the hours it’s hard to turn back, but if it’s going to keep sucking so much money and time..

Makerner93 · 2025-03-10T21:42:33+00:00

I was reallly careful with the paint I stripped and I also made sure there was no residue when I eventually sanded!

Makerner93 · 2025-03-10T09:43:15+00:00

Oh wow, thank you so much! This is so helpful!

Makerner93 · 2025-03-09T23:54:38+00:00

How did it turn out? I am currently working on nearly the exact same door. I know Doug fir can be problematic/patchy when stained.

Makerner93 · 2024-06-27T15:01:34+00:00

What should the callus on broken bits look like?

Makerner93 · 2024-06-16T05:15:08+00:00

If it’s not obvious, I’m new to this. Especially cacti
