Re: Best way to find a leak??

Bronze below the waterline, stainless above. Plastic sucks. Don't be the guy in the picture. (just happened to touch it after we hauled out and it came off in my hand) 20180528_173153.jpg Watch out for MALERON plastic fittings at the water line.

Re: 10 meter express part Trojan forgot to build

That looks great!!

I cut some Rigidex 874010 Moldtruded Grate to fit in mine. It is antiskid texture on top, and is impervious to almost all chemicals, and can hold up my big butt.
