nickyboi Posted September 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Ok cool, and what else will I need in terms of gear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cracker Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Have a look at "Crackers upgrade". (THREAD). I am building a large but simple system that is MONEY friendly for the size system I am upgrading to. Obviously a smaller system will be even more friendly if done right. My hint to you is, LFS are the most expensive and friends of the hobby are the opposite, if you know what I mean. You will still need the LFS for some parts, but only when absolutely necessary. Knowing people helps with cost dramatically. More than welcome to see my existing set up and im sure they're are a couple of others here that can share info or show you their setups. Very advisable, as my first set up was LFS orientated and I spent WAY too much.... :-? Pm me if required and good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misnoma Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I'll second the "go and see people's setups and talk to them" thing... I've done that with a couple of people here on the forums (thanks Jetskisteve and reef!), and am intending to see more yet (no-one is safe!). Chatting one-on-one with people tends to get a lot of questions answered more clearly than on the forums at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelers Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 About those needle wheel skimmers from deep blue, I read a thread comparing cheap skimming options and quite a few people said that they just werent worth the extra $ compared the normal weirpro, they said they were of comparable skimmate. (obviously I have no idea so no replies about how im living in fairy land) Ill try and find the thread if anyones interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 Speaking of those, can anyone get me a needlewheel pump? I've got a berlin classic sitting doing nothing in my closet, thought if I were to throw a needlewheel pump on it it might work pretty well.

Feelers Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 http://www.sgreefclub.com/forum/index.php?s=5a4d3ae8f41e718e01762ac9b99413ef&showtopic=5674&st=30 is the comparison thing, I was looking to find how good a weipro was. This thread was amazingly hard to find !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feelers Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 they call good dark skimmate kopi-o or something, which is the word for coffee possibly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
