All these responses and not a word about your RO system.
Typical. It looks very nice. I'm not sure I would take the
homebrew approach mostly because I am not an officianado
on these systems.

future reference when I build my water maker. Could you post a list of
suppliers for the parts list Great job.


I am working on a page with component choices, specifications and
sources. Also trying to figure a way to have the PC board images print
true size so they can be used for etching more boards.

Touche. Good info, no doubt, but beyond my present means. I
hope to need the juice, in readable format, after paying off some
college tuitions.

Glen,
I searched your site and cent seem to find your RO machine... and my
newsreader deleted your original post. Whats the location, again?


Also..... I have a 44# spade (from you) and cant get it hold in soopy
mud as well as a danforth. Any suggestions? Ive tried extra long
scope, etc.

The watermaker page is about 3 levels down. You can navigate there from
SystemsPlumbing.

That is very true. The Spade is one of the best anchors overall but no
single anchor is best for all bottoms. In soupy bottoms total fluke
area perpendicular to the rode's pull means a lot more than the most
refined geometry. When it comes to soft mud NOTHING beats the Danforth
set wide. All the Practical Sailor test showed it.

OTOH, the Danforths and Fortress patterns don't reset well. Everything
in boating is a compromise and this is one of them.
