[CMcNeil]

Great job, it looks sooooo good. So what did you decide to do with the skimmers? Are you going to make a new one, tanke your current one and make it external, or change your sump?

 

[shibumi]

WOW looks amazing .... I love everything .... I am soooo jealous

 

[CMcNeil]

thanks for the compliments all,i plan on making a skimmer,for me to go under the sump i have to deal with all the plumbing and height restrictions.

 

[CMcNeil]

ok today blew overall for getting materials for the skimmer.i was able to get the 4.5" for the neck,so i cut the transition off the old euro i had,then machined it flat again.i then machined out the old neck pipe and added a new one in.i also cut some of the threads off the neck union to make it less turns to remove the cup.i am still trying to get the 8" for the body.here is the top part of the skimmer minus the collection cup.
