Maxijet mod

Beau is hosting the January Meeting this coming Saturday the 14th at 6PM.  It will be BYOB as well as a snack to share and raffle items are always welcome.  It has been requested that there be “NO SHOES” on the carpet due to it being a whitish color.

He doesn’t have a tank to view but we will have plenty to discuss in hopes that it will get the NEW YEAR off to a good start.  The annual membership fees are due, so now would be a good time to get them in to our Treasurer Stacey Hahn.   Fees are $20 per individual or $25 per family

Attendance was low at the election meeting in November and no votes were taken at December’s meeting so we have decided to take votes for anyone that didn’t get the opportunity in November and will be attending this meeting.  
We will add the votes to November’s ballots and the announcement will be made during the meeting so we can go forward.
NOMINATIONS:
President:  Jim & Nacho
V. President: Ed, Bo & Daniel Leigey
Treasurer: Stacey
Secretary: Carmen & Angie

Let’s hope the New Year brings new members, returning members and new ideas.  The club is always willing to take suggestions to get the most out of the hobby we all enjoy.

Hope to see you all there!

Here is a great modification I found for the Maxi jets to increase flow.  Looks simple enough and seems to work great.

Have you built one Angel? I have thought about trying one but haven't had the time yet.

I have built two of them but have had trouble getting the stoppers just right.  I like these new kits but I don't see stoppers on them?  What happens if the power flickers and they start going the other way and suck water instead of push it?  Hmmmmm?

Angel,

My stop was breaking just like yours.  I think I fixed the issue by replacing the 1/4 acrylic rod with a 1/4 threaded nylon screw.  The nylon is much more impact resistant and will not shear like the acrylic.  I just tapped out the hole where the rod was and put in a screw.  So far it has been working great.

Leng Cy did his own version of Maxi Jet Mod.    It is a little better than Maxi jet Mods. com version.  Its about 5 dollars cheaper too.
