Did you fix that picture?
Anyway, I take it back, as drawn the Doo-Dad will fill the hose.
I want one - how clever!
BTW - Nice drawing!

That's fine with me Ben, thanks. Always glad to try and help a forum member, as this forum has helped me so much! JCG, shoot me an email with your name and address and I'll get it out to you this week.

Tom, if you and JCG agree, I will send each of you the other's email address. -ben

That would be fantastic! And yes the diameters on the ends are different given the one end goes into the skimmer and the other into the end of the hose, I had just neglected to consider that in the drawing.

Many thanks,
Jim

I did, with each comment that suggested a problem and prompted a bit more of the memory.

I have something that looks almost exactly like your drawing. It's orange, with 2 white fan blades inside. They seem to be attached by a shaft running through the middle of the device, and when I turn the blades of one, the other turns too. The diameter of the ends are different sizes though, unlike your drawing. One end is about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, the other is close to 1 3/4 inches. It's been in my shed forever, and I may have used it once, although I really don't remember. You can have it if you want it. Maybe a moderator can help us facilitate me sending it to you. Not sure what shipping would would be, I'm on Long Island, in NY. Worth a shot I would guess. The price is right, free, lol.

Many, Many thanks Tom !!!
Also changed the drawing to reflect your observations (although can't promise the proportions).
Thanks Again,
Jim

This is exactly why this forum works. Everyone helps everyone else. Awesome.

Now I'm curious... if there is a brand or company name on the device, please post. Maybe a part #?

[TomC]

Too late for me to look, my wife mailed it this afternoon, you'll have to wait for Jim to receive it. Maybe the manufacturer's name is on it.
