OKMO Microcosm P71 Mini Pump mounted on a custom wood plinth with custom plumbing. I had a lot of fun machining up a lot of the metal work and also doing the woodwork and then putting this all together, I have a lot of hours invested in this. Silver brazing up the three copper pot water return was a fiddly job to tackle, I had an image in my mind after giving it a lot of thought of what I wanted and it worked out better than expected and better still it worked! |

Nice :clap: I wonder if adding a syphon action to the bowls would make it more dynamic, a bit like the start-action repeated endlessly ? And I wonder if adding a little alcohol or surfactant to the water would help to break the surface tension, making the water 'runnier'. |

Looks great Jim. My first thought on seeing your output bowls was, "Milk Cream Separator". Amazing how first impressions brought Uncle's farm stuff. I lived in town so farm visits were a big outing. Everything there was horse drawn and the cows were hand milked with the milk separated for cream. Good to see, John B |
