Nice idea, but give me the specs first. How much water per minute does it pull, what’s the pressure drop, and what materials are you using for the filter media? If the flow rate drops to less than half after a few hours, you’ve got a bottleneck. Make sure the seals hold up—leaks are like hidden enemies, they’ll multiply the problem. And remember, the cheapest parts are usually the weakest; reinforce the structure if it feels like a paper fort. Test it under full load, then watch for biofilm buildup—slow‑moving water is a breeding ground. If it keeps up and stays clear, you’re in the clear. Otherwise, step back and fortify before you press the start button again.
