I am wanting to build a skimmer(venturi design maybe NW) not sure yet but I am looking at using PVC for the body and acrylic for the neck and cup. Is there a good way to bond PVC to acrylic?

yeah hey how goes it. Thanks for the input. I am sure Home Depot has it too will go look. What holds the cup on the neck on your skimmer a uniseal? I was looking at it and I cannot figure it out.

That is the problem all the plastic companies I called down here dont have it. I would have to order online or drive to Copus Christie to get and that is a 2.5-3 hour drive.
