custom built humidity tray

taking some of the members ideas and some of my own here is my humidity tray i built along with the table. it holds around 7 to 8 gallons of water. the frame you see sits directly over the water container which is notning more than a tupperware container that fits under your bed, with the light grid on top with a frame for support. it is a full 2' x 4' and 6 1/2" deep. the frame is curly cherry finished with shellac and a waterbase clear coat. the interior frame for the grid is made out of spanish cedar which will not rot from getting wet. took about two and a half hours to build. oh yeah i am a cabinet maker so that does help
