Good luck YF, and I'll keep an eye on the thread. It sounds like a really cool idea. I'm still not at all sold on the cone idea, but we'll see what you think once you've built one yourself since you build a ton of random stuff. I'm confused by the picture above, on the right side, *** is that? Also what pump are you going to use? I still haven't seen a recirc cone skimmer, so that'd be a cool idea.

Either way, good luck, and hopefully this turns out really nicely!
 
ew ew ew i want to be one of the first people to post in a mega thread!

Seriously though, i hope this works out well...i am anxious to see how it looks put together.

You should really give www.polyfab.biz the proper credit for the formula you used in your first post....what you posted is straight from their website (minus all of the hand writing and "young frank" autographs);)
 
I was just wondering when the next creation was going to come along, its been pretty slow on here, that is going to be one short fat cone thats for sure.
Is this going to be another little giant powered skimmer?

No worries YF a wise man once told me you dont have to know all the answers personally, you just need to know where to find them!
Good luck with the build Ill be keeping up wanting to see the progress!

it looks like its a weld-on super pin ultra efficient high velocity turbo vase. :D

hmm after a closer look, maybe its a bong, that would explain a lot. :bum:
