Here I come!!! Help Me, Please?

1655 from the return + 2428 from the closed loop = 4083. That is 18.5 times flow. Plus... if the penductors can triple or quadruple the 1655 portion of the figure... that will put me at 9000 gph which is exactly what you just said. I'm not confused any more.

DOH!!!

I started the new stand this weekend. I missed a litlle football Sunday.

This Saturday... I will skin the bottom, back and top and start to seal and paint the inside.

 

[TandN]

looks like another great setup coming

 

[SVTour]

Nice stand...should definitly hold her! But missing football Sunday to build it? Oh, wait...you're from Washington...no big loss. J/K

You planning to put some sort of panel on those?

 

[jnarowe]

Very nice work on the stand.

Sorry, but you brought it up first... We'll get back on topic now and I spare you the pic of our SB ring with all the diamonds (cause that's what friends do).

Should I use 5/8" plywood for the top and bottom or maybe should I spring for thicker on the top?

 

[jnarowe]

I would use 3/4" marine grade, but that stand is so well built, you probably would be fine with the 5/8".

 

[Kannin]

I can't aford to redo it so, where do I get marine grade? Somewhere with out having to ride a big green state owned boat.

 

[Kannin]

Thanks for saying it is "so well built". I'm pretty proud of it.

 

[jnarowe]

Just check with your local wood supplier or hardware store and find outdoor grade. Dunn Lumber and Stewart Lumber probably have a decent grade of plywood...Marine grade is available at certain places but it may not be worth hunting it own. I coated mine with West System Epoxy resin, and I would recommend you do something lke that to preserve the wood. In all reality, salt water is not bad for wood, and will penetrate and preserve it somewhat itself.

Thank you Jonathan.
