tagareef.. what do you do for a living?

 

[Tagareef]

Thanks Lunchbucket...It's a work in progress. I've had the idea in my head for over a year and just recently it all started to come together.:fish1:

Gabriel, I am doing time at the local phone company, Qwest, 27 years so far of my lifetime term! Your 300 is coming along nicely...I'll put you down for 2 self cleaning heads - one for the AP702 and one for the Barr!!!:fun4:

If any of you are thinking about make a SCH for your skimmers, the 1st thing I suggest is to make another lid for it just in case you goof. I was so paranoid it took me almost an hour to drill 5 holes in the lid. Measure 10 times - drill once. I couldn't imagine drilling a bunch of holes in my new Bubble King's lid!:eek2:

Tagareef, that looks awesome!! Do you have a thread showing how everything is put together and maybe a part list?

 

[Konadog]

What Pierce said (cali_reef) Do you have a part list?

You should start a thread in the DIY forum on the making of this!

 

[Tagareef]

Thanks guys...I'll try to get something together for a thread on the DIY forum in the next couple of weeks. It would be nice to brainstorm with people to maybe resolve some design issues I've come up against.

Didn't mean to hijack the BK thread!

Thanks again for the support...I've never received so many PM's and e-mails!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome addition in any case, how much would you say it cost you overall. The prices for these things retail are ridiculous!

Peace,
John

It goes to show that there is a definite market for that equipment. The main reason I want one is ...I hate cleaning skimmers!! I find nog and crud build up in the neck disgusting!
