I ended up with the pump external of the body as it would be difficult to make it to get the pump back out.

Still waiting on the ring to finish the lid but other than that its done.

This right after starting it up
 
Now go make me a cone for a 9 1/2 x 12 inch chamber for a 75 gallon system. 27" max heighth
 
How does the well do you think the pump is running. I know it still needs to be broken in yet.

he pump is really quiet. I have not tested the air draw yet. I have to add a little air line holder and am waiting for the ring to put on the lid but other than that the skimmer looks great. and well its running right along. Time will tell.

Thanks for the kind words
 
i added it all up and I have about $340 in this build. Thats just material and pump.
 
I saw the skimmer in person. Very good build quality and super quiet. It's bigger than I expected it to be. Bubbles hover about an inch off the bubble plate and they are super thick and consistent all the way up to the neck. Very nice skimmer mojo. I see a custom made mojo skimmer in my future.
 
Nice skimmer. any updated pics of this skimmer in action?
 
I agree we need an update, what are your thoughts on they Hydrofoamer? Have you had a chance to measure the air draw and estimate the water flow?
