Love to see it.

That would be great. I have had others use the thick plastic cutting boards as well. Thank you for your kind words.

If you turn on the closed captioning it will play the video with Spanish subtitles.

I completed the frame in about 3 hours today. The top took longer because I had to wait for the glue to dry on the rigid vinyl plank. I went with Velcro as well, thinking I can remove the top in bad weather. Don’t know how the rvp will hold up but it’s easily replaced. Overall it is excellent. It will work perfectly. Lessons learned: I didn’t really account for the weight of the rvp so the shelf was set at level without the top and it moved a bit when I set the top on it. Not much tho. Still looks great! I’m hoping it serves me well for years to come. Thanks very much for posting this excellent idea.

Also, I got lucky with the length of the brace arms. I didn’t measure and just went with the 10” in the video. Luckily it was perfect.

Send me the link. I'd love to see it.

Going to have to make another one my brother stole mine said he had to have it and since it was Father’s Day this weekend I gave it to him lol be making a new one later this week but will do probably post it on TikTok also when setting it up but I will give ya credit because If it wasn’t for your video I would’ve never thought of doing this I just found clear PVC piping

The connection to the pump was a male threaded to a female slip. (1:27) Then I connected a union female both sides connector that unscrews for easy disassemble if needed. Very similar setup to the filter unit. Union female both ends to the male threaded to female slip connector to the filter unit. (1:38) Hope this helps.

You sure can as long as all the connectors match and it feels stable enough.

I used a 1.5" to 2" adapter to fit the 2" on the filter and pump.

Yes it does. Attach with PVC glue as normal.

I attached the pvc flex hose into the schedule 40 adaptor.

Yes, but you have to make the hole bigger with the template that comes with the skimmer.

@@JDee7 ok was just wondering cause that skimmer looks like its a square cut-out and my skimmer was a round cut-out

That is exactly how I did it. Push the screws through and secure with the gaskets, then cut liner as close as you can to the edge of the skimmer so no debris gets caught on the way in.

👍👏

With a little modification I don't see why not. I have not tried on that style yet. They don't seem to angle out too far so it may work as is.

Sweet!!!

Mine is not separately grounded other than the plug into the GFCI I installed next to it. I haven't had any issues. It wouldn't be a bad idea to ground it separate. Check with your local codes and electrician for any assistance on that.

Awesome. Thank you!!!

You're very welcome

@@JDee7 husband said he’s building ASAP- do you have a printable version

I actually updated mine and found a large cutting board made from a resin/plastic material that works fantastic.

I believe I understand your question. I have one return (the eyeball) and one inlet which is the skimmer. I have a valve that runs between the return from the pump to the pool that splits from the return (eyeball) in the pool and the fountain. This way you can regulate how much water comes out of the fountain by adjusting the opening of the valve. You can keep the two returns as long as you have one of them for the fountain as well. For more pressure to the valve shut off bot returns (eyballs) and only let the fountain go. I hope this helps.
