Redneck Skimmer (Patent Pending)

[phljess]

If you missed the Sunday meeting, here are a couple of pictures of my MacGivered skimmer I created on Saturday. It has still not broken in so I think it will produce much better skimmate in the near future after it has been regulated correctly. I would go into the components I made this skimmer out of but they are Space Age top secret military polymers and I do not want to to get into any trouble with ole "Uncle Sam"

I just wanted to see what else, besides overflows could be made using 2 liter bottles and junk from around the house. I was amazed it actually worked!

The skimmer body is a 2 liter bottle, the neck of the skimmer is a old bulk head, and the collection cup is from an old Amiracle skimmer. It is driven by a NW Maxijet 1200. The thing produces alot of skim. Way better than a prizm or a seaclone.
