I have not tried PETG yet. Mostly I have stuck with ABS. I tried some natural ABS (non-pigmented) for the first time recently and was absolutely amazed at how much stronger the final print seemed.

I will keep this in mind. The idea of mesh wheel was on my mind when I did the original skimmer design. But couldn't justify the effort to model it. Just messing with a "solid" wheel in the slicer never occurred to me. Do have your work posted somewhere to share?
I have been running the pegged impeller design since last November and have been pretty pleased with its performance. There is probably some room for improvement, but it cranks out plenty of nasty foam as is.
