Yeah, they sure did. I'd highly recommend the hinges and pistons they used for anyone considering building a canopy. Having the whole front flip up and stay up is really convenient. I can clean the entire tank without removing the canopy. I'd be happy to show some detailed pics.
I think I like the magnetic panels on the stand, but it takes some getting used to. It will be really nice for doing major work in the sump, but it is a little annoying to have to remove a whole panel when just checking on the skimmer or checking temp, etc. I'll mount my controller on the end of the stand when I get it.
