Filter media: strapping tape VS PE sheeting VS...
I found some polypropylene strapping tape at
http://www.uline.com/ProductDetail.asp?model=S-375 and it's about 27 cents per square foot, figuring both sides, ignoring shipping. I've heard it mentioned here and people were happy with it. Long ago on a pond tour I saw someone using polyethylene sheeting (available in any home store) that they had cut into long strips (about an inch wide I think). 4 mil PE costs about 1.7 cents a square foot at http://www.uline.com/ProductDetail.asp?model=S-5130 There is the labor of cutting. Seems like you could cut a bunch at once with a sharp razor knife. Anyone ever use PE sheeting as filter media? It's a pretty low investment, I'll probably just try it... |
