Got the crud in my tanks, 120g tank and 3 tractors.
Need to filter, already applied the biocide.
Did the youboob videos, mostly European barges and sail boaters to get the layout of a setup.
Anyone have a suggestion of where to buy one?

Thanks, was thinking of a Chinese setup.

Called a local Parker outlet, got a much better deal, 2 extra filters, 2 metric to pipe thread fittings for less than the supplier that must not be named.
And yes, being stupid does hurt.

Got some 0.5" sheets of HDPE from back when I was a Striper slayer.
How about fabbing a polishing stand from this stuff?

This is how it is mocked up now.
Do not really want to cut another sheet to get a 20"x20" backing.
Milk crate will hold the battery and spare filters.
1" pipe hangers will hold the milk crate and board to the 2 wheeler.
What do you think?

How much? I bought 2 of the Chinese bases for 50 bucks and added 4 Racor filters (2 used and 2 spares) for 100 bucks from the Racor store. Mine are tractor mounted however.
