[hammondegge]

hey jim, what design did you use?

[purplesprite]

thats great.I wanted to build my own,but by the time i got the materials i would have totaled about what it cost to get a new one already built.plus i need one like ...yesterday!

[purplesprite]

Hammond, I used my own top secret design.... If I told ya, Id have ta...... lol. Jorge, it cost me around $25 in materials and maybe 6 hours of time to construct. I was selling them here on maast for $65 a while back.

ahh yea, i remember i was thinking about buying it.some one else was selling a geo reactor on this site not too long ago.Im wondering why they sold it was it no working for them or what.

I think they went to a calcium reactor and thats why they sold the kalk reactor.

I'm about to make a kalk reactor; I have tube for 2 of them so I could make a 2nd one more or less at the same time. Mine are big; 18" tall 6"diameter cast acrylic tube chamber with a little box underneath, the mixing pump is a little pan world. Total height is about 23". Send me a PM if you're interested; I'm not sure of the price but probably more than the geo reactor. Jim's are very reasonable and lots of people have used them with no complaints I've ever heard. If you want to have a look at one I made I think it's at Fin-addict; I know he just bought it from another MAAST member.
