Am I close?

It looks like a minijet. Please explain what sort of pieces you used to make the cap for the output? Is it completely watertight? I'm particularly curious how you made the piece the tubing slips into.

Yep it's a pump 185gph, the adptor is from Revy in the sprinkler section, with an end cap screwed into the end. Everything is water tight, the only problem i had was the top where the lid meets the body. I had to silicone the gasket to one side and screw the cap on to dry so it would form it's own imprfections, so to speak. The piece the tube slips through is just a qick conect fitting form Revy, i drilled it though (same size as the tube) and just push though what you need and tighten it down. It would have been made out of acrylic but i had this stuff laying around and i really don't need to see though it. Just need to monitor the output.
