Hi fellow Diyers,

I'm thinking of making a spray injector skimmer with big PVC pipe. Then the base i intend to cut Acrylic and stick it to the PVC pipe.

But i'm wondering.. wat can stick PVC to Acrylic tightlyand it wouldn't leak?

Will Weldon work ? ? if not, wat have u guys used before?

Have tried Epoxy before. Dun work that well.

:thanks:

Hi bigben,

i did tot of using that .. but its a "big" pipe for those drainage construction.

So i dun think they have the end cap and will be very difficult to find.

Hi acontia,

Thanks for the info! will try it out..

I'll try to do a log here for the whole DIY process of the skimmer if i really decide to start it. ;)

Cheers!

hmm... u can try amk industrial park. they have those big pipes there. whether or not they have the end caps u want i am not sure. u might wanna check it out. think it would be a cheaper alternative ? haha

but using acrylic is more "cool" though lolz

Thanks! .. i'm actually thinking of changing the pipe to a slightly smaller diameter so that the end cap will be available.

May do a full PVC skimmer with a acrylic view window on the side of the body to check bubble intensity for tuning.

Will drive ard and see wat i can find.
