diy filter sump and wet/dry(load warning)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
where do you get the pot scrubbers?
 
Where they sell the stainless wool they sell the nylon ones...with ceramic stoves it's a must. Ebay also has some right now...

Ebay Scrubbers
 
I got my pot scrubbers from BigLots, they come in a 6 pack for 79 cents. You can find their store locations on the website, www.biglots.com

new pics and design
Ok i change it all aroun on the mechanical side. Instead of having the diff chambers i used regular old plastic food storage containers stacked in layers.
The first layer is where the water enters. The second layer is coarse filter media to trap all the big particals. I used pot scouring pads for this layer stacked 3 high.
The third layer is filter floss to trap all the fine particals before entering the wet dry side of the filter.

Here are the pics:
 
dang wrong button lol
