It's Wet And Working
Finally got to the first water test and luckily there were no "Shit, quick, turn it off!!" cries.
The water test went well and the ghost overflow performed beautifully.
The plumbing all held together OK, no leaks. The gate valve on the main drain was worth it for the fine tune ability.
(The straight edge is only there for support until the back panel goes on.)
Love the duckbills, they give such a nice smooth, quiet flow across the surface.
I've never set up a sump before, so thanks to a (much appreciated) day of help from @somethingfishy76 we (he) got it running dead silent.
Over the next week or so I'll pull it all down and take the stand to the cabinetmaker.
When that's back I'll put it all back together and do the salt water fill to start the cycle.
