Since SF is the Springbok Rugby coach we should respect him!
The sign must be some insult. I hesitate to enquire?

Installed the skimmer today to enable me to work out levels in filter bay. All levels based from the skimmer center. I will have to collect my Nexus from Vredenburg in the next couple of days or face a problem lifting it over the wall. The green trickle towers x 2 from Wilpet (1400 x 1300 x 800) will also come into play this week and it will be a challenge to hide them from all corners outside filter bay.
I was informed this week that to fix a 110m fitting on these green towers with PVC Glue is not a good idea. Any one with experience on the towers?




Will do some more pipework over the week-end

If the towers are made out of flexible plastic I'd go for a 110mm tank connector or two 90mm tank connectors T'd into a 110mm pipe back to your pond.

Trickle Tower Media Block also used in cooling towers.

If a 110mm joint can slip over the that exit I'll just use good old silicone to seal it. no need for PVC cement.

Thanks Ernst, I will try the silicone, it's a gravity exit, no pressure so it should work.

LG,

Nee, hulle is vas geskroef want die opleiding skool is in Gauteng!
As hulle los is kry hulle miskien voete.............bly ordelik as dit vas is.

PS. Dis nie dieselfde teken nie...............miskien sal SAS dit vertaal

Jan,

jy beweeg nou op f@kk@n dun ys, ek kan jou my familie stamboom stuur, ek is niks van hom nie! Ek beskou dit as 'n beledinging om met hom vergelyk of verwys te word!
Ek sal dit waadeer as dit nie weer gebeur nie.

Wag dat ek gou eers my pype gaan PVC en vasbou, ek verneem SF is in die omtrek en op die oorlogspad. Ek het erens gelees hy hou van stir, maar vetrou nie die vrede nie.

To be a Koi keeper one needs to be a pvc pipe handy, plumber, electrician, builder a water expert. etc etc eg. ducking and diving the SF experts

Today tried to install electrical plug boxes, pipes line in preparation for the wiring and pipes for light switches.

Also a few PVC ball-valves on some waste lines.



Also placed the 90 mm gravity return lines into place ready for building. Return from trickle towers into pond

Bobby probeer dit eers.

Dankie Collin, Ek het dit nogal oorweeg maar was skrikkerig om dit self voor te stel met al die experts op die forum. EK aanvaar dis die 90 toilet bend met die rubber binne aan beide kante van bend.

Did a test fit on my grid in filter bay this afternoon before final welding and galvanizing.
