this one has a more updated mesh-holding water wand for more even dispersal of water with less algae buildup

Is there a pic of this style?

Not up on the site. This model, though it works great, makes it difficult to get the mesh into the scrubber and lock down the wand. I use the threading of the 90degree elbow to lock-in the wand. It sated my fewer parts is better ideology but introduces a few caveats.

I’ll post some more renders. The magic happens to distribute the water evenly inside the wand - some of the features can only be manufactured via 3D printing.

Best I have atm. The model file for my ParlgaeScrubber is a mess - too many revisions. I'll remake it for any orders.... after I get my shop up and running again. Need to install significantly more dust collection for the CNC.

Some of that busywork down the center are little teeth that grip the mesh so its super easy to take it out and put it in and is gripped nice and securely.
Much thought (and many revisions) went into getting this part just right.

a ParlaScrubber. this one has a more updated mesh-holding water wand for more even dispersal of water with less algae buildup. I got a cease and desist over Instagram from Clearwater scrubbers so I stopped offering them for cash; not even a letter from a lawyer so I'll start offering them again when I get my shop setup.

Oh interesting. I've been looking into the SM scrubbers for quite a while. I'll touch base with you before pulling the trigger in the event you're up and running - would rather support my local mad scientists ;)

Just because it looks cool... There have been slight changes to it since this:

just updated the 3D model on the page. that still doesn't have the changes for the new wand though.

I was trying to poke around, but your websites not loading for me.

Is there only a hanging option in your design plans? I was looking at the Santa Monica because the floating design seems really nice, my sump is fully enclosed + has lids over the chamber that I'm a big fan of.

Here are a few more photos of my prototype. Right now it has 2 lights installed. Can add another 2 on the side I have for viewing now.
