What's up?.....

I'm very happy with the new system for the shipping facility at Ebiken Studio. It has been much easier to complete orders and netting out shrimps has been a walk in the park. The only thing I need to do is when I have some free time I need to make more nets so that I can have 1 for every tank.

To recap on the last week of shipments made......

Most airport to airport shipment will now use a box with reflective insulation for an even more effective temperature control

staggered packing :)

a lil blurred...

Sectioned off packing to prevent tools from moving and poking holes at livestock.

A TB in every bag =)

To Quebec =D

Dry goods ontop to prevent it from poking livestock =)

40 shrimps in that lil space? All arrived alive though =)

Sometimes it takes a stoplight for you to realize its good to take breaks from work.

Took another break after shipping through Air Canada facing YVR airport

And once again back to work! =(

WE ARE COMING OUT!

YUM! =) new pattern has finally appeared!

Finally.... complete!

It's been a long time since I've updated with numerous problems I've had to deal with. This rack should have been done a long time.... well we've finally arrived to completion with all tanks up and running. Please enjoy the pictures as I've enjoyed very much the building of this rack system.

Picture of rack with room light on!

Picture of rack with room lights off.... now to wait for the ottoman's to arrive so that my client's can also enjoy this.

Super Princess Bee loving its new environment and looking sharp!

Renovation of Ebiken Studio part 3

I've finished the last and final support beams for the tanks to help distribute weight more evenly and have also hooked up the entire temporary light system. I'm currently starting to cement in place the PVC tubing for the air system and will be looking through the container for the other goodies to finish off this entire system.

An update on the slow progress today:

the overall framework is finally complete, quite happy what I achieved myself in such little time.

And this is just to see how nice a 20 gallon will fit in 1 of the slots =) plenty of arm space ontop

And the amount of cuts I have left to finish the supporting center beams between each supporting structure. Glad I at least pre-drilled all the holes.

Renovation of Ebiken Studio

As many of you may have seen, this is the previous setup:

I've decided to change things up a bit by making everything more uniform looking and more functional and organized and so it begins...

This is when I have had almost all the pieces cut to build the rack:

Then... the demolition.... for something that took 4 days to build, I thought it would be really quick and easy for me to take apart little did I know was I wrong.... 

Not only did it take a long time.... but the next day I woke up to not being able to move at all and had to be hospitalized from excruciating pain due to a strained neck( stupid c3 and c4), shoulder and back... Doctors orders is not to do anymore strenuous activities for at least 6-8 months for full recovery as I've injured it over 10 times since 2008's car accident which led to a totaling of my car.... For those who know me for how stubborn I am, that just doesn't stick well with me... A few t3's the next day and a night before of my puppy missing me...

I get straight back to work (today)

at the end of the day we are left with this.... only 1 more support side to go up and then the strengthening beams (not that it needs anymore but just because its me)

Another busy week.....

Shipped a few packages of shrimp and also Aqua Inspirations shipment of driftwood has left Ebiken Studio.

All wrapped up and ready to go!
