Cylindrical pieces are not cheap. If you can design it to be rectangular you'll save a pile of money. They also have a scrap bin along the back left hand side. You might find something there.

They also have off cut pieces that are a decent size for half price.

Sounds like a fun project.

I get all my acrylic PVC fittings from Canus Plastics. Much cheaper than PVC Plus.

I love how this guy built his skimmer.
