Spent this afternoon cobbling together my first iteration of a Manila filter roller, want to see how well this works then perhaps create a refined version out of acrylic. Has anyone else built one? Would like to see others’ set ups!

bump, looks like a great prototype/ v1.0. add a motor and mount a float switch (if you havent already, and it should be good to go. make sure the holes for exiting water arent too close to the edges, the edges of the roll can kind of fold if the exiting water dispersion isnt even.

I'd like to see more DIY rollers too!
