| hahaha. No not a bathroom. It's my fish room. I have my tank built into the wall and this is the back part. I am using it because Its too hot in the garage. the table I made is covered with ceramic tile and then I laid more tile on top of the table so I dont burn the grout. floor is concrete so it pretty much fire proof, unless I get silly in there. |

| looks good! I like how the roof is not flat, it looks like it's high in the center so that should help with recovery if your on your roof! i have been thinking about redoing my first tuber also, it performed so much better than my stock chassis. it makes me wonder if it could be better a second time around! |

| Thanks for the input guys. I appreciate it the top has a bit of an angle to help if I go over backwards I can throttle it back onto its wheels. |
