my favorite quote:

"It's been a lot of trial and error. As it is now I've probably got $2,000 worth of parts on it, but about $10,000 total has gone into it because I'd buy a $200 part that didn't work, then go to a $300 part that didn't work before finding a $50 part that did," he said."
 
Pretty cool but I think this one might be more fun:

I think everyone should have a tank.
 
"He's a genius when to comes to visualization of a problem, seeing what needs to be done and figuring out every step along the way that needs to happen," said Steve Sankey, 27, a fraternity brother who pitched in on the tank's construction
