This is the first pump that I finished all by myself so I'm pretty happy with the results. It's not perfect but I like it. Wife says I can't put anymore in the house I think I have room for another

Nice pump Shawn. We need to remember that these pumps were never perfect even when they were brand new. I'll take the pride and fun of having done it yourself over a pricey overdone pump that never existed in the real world.

I was worried about that blue color at first but it came out ok. I am pretty lucky as the wife kinda likes them as long as they don't creep upstairs
