Stacker's hobby project 2006

I'll be making "stream" convertion kits for Maxi-Jet 600 and 900 pumps in the very near future. These will turn stock MJ pumps into 500+ GPH devices similar to the ultra expensive low pressure/high volume pumps on the market. They will be fairly inexpensive to make and sell. Ofcourse club members will get a discount...

Think it can be done before the swap or "right after"

Mine will be done this week if the parts come in. I'm also waiting on a piece of poly to finish Pauls sump. Looks like I'll be doing "gov't" jobs a few evenings...

Something you'd know all about eh?

Anywho!

Prototype no. 1 is complete, I built the cowling and have expiramented with the prop setup. I haven't tested it yet because I was busy all weekend.
