My first DIY skimmer

[whaase]

I've wanted to build one of these for a long time now. After my old skimmer wasn't cutting it anymore, I decided to take the plunge. Wayne might recognize the old skimmer! It stands about 2ft finished. I based it on the AquaC.

Here are some pics.

First one is of the parts..

My "jig" to keep the joints square.

The nozzle.



Here is 3 shots of it done.





It took about 2 hours to make. It was also my first time working with acrylic. Comments?
