Wow way to make ur dream come true

And @jsker the fmk is like the tickle me Elmo doll in what I want to say was the late 90's everyone had to have it and it was sold out everywhere. Then once u got it it was cool for like a week then once u know everything it can do the thrill was gone. Besides knowing if your pushing less water then normal so it can shut off your return pumps its kinda useless. I mean I still have both the tickle me Elmo doll and fmk but I'm a hoarder

Thank you, I have a fur-bee:D Good to know, If I were to get the FMK is would be to see when my flow slows down. Then I know when I have to clean. or a issue with flow.

Yea that's about what I use it for I also now know that every percent I raise one of my vectra m1 is roughly 10 gallons and hour the info is great but once your done figuring everything out well it's kinda pointless. Now the ability to have a water sensor is awesome and then the ato well that's cool as well but if using just to check flow ahh it's ok wait till the price drops or Black Friday.

I went with a lap joint method using a router and a homemade jig. Not to shabby.

Now that i have all 5 doors framed i have to router out a 1/4 reveal for the glass to set in, pocket hole for the spring hinges and paint.
