you've never built a skimmer, right? I'd guess most of the cost in these skimmers is to recoup the costs of the machinery to get those pieces of plastic into gluing condition...

but if someone just wants some plastic glued together (sure I have some around somewhere) and a pump, I can do that for the low cost of $4000. Less than half!!
