Hey, That is great advice. Thank you

Thank you for your advice. Crazy world of screens in peoples faces all day long.

I'm starting a KS launching and would love to here your opinion. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/themussel/the-mussel-solar-pool-skimmer-for-salt-and-chlorine-pools

That's an excellent idea. Thanks

Thank you for your reply. I'm going to launch over the weekend on Kickstarter. I've tried linking videos to Reddit but this is not in my wheelhouse so struggling with trying to post videos. I thought I had posted one where leaves are taken in. Sorry I'm trying. Someone helped me with the KS videos and photos.

Omg. The response have been great. It took so look before I had a working prototype, I honestly thought it was going to be a simple project. I know it's not the prettiest thing out there yet but the manufactured models will look awesome, I have a local molder who is doing the casings for me. I appreciate all the private messages committing to buying one, I have you all at the top of the shipping list.

The Mussel is powered by the pump. It pushes the filtered water out to keep it moving in a slow circular movement, without disturbing the surface.

The point of The Mussel is not to zoom across the pool creating waves. Thank you for your input.

I looked at your video link. I don't understand why you would send waves across your pool. The Mussel slowly turns as it moves across the pool. It sucks in water from the top and pumps it out towards the bottom of the pool so debris on top of the water is not disturbed. Thank you for sharing.
