Hmmm...To start with, I ordered the top that is specific to my BK m180 according to the website, when I recieved it though, the grooves in the top don't line up so you have to use the little side clamps to centre the unit, but as i was doing this one of the arms broke off due to a poor weld. After I re-welded it and had it all programmed with the APEX, it looked like it was working well, I then noticed that the skim lip (?) on the bottom of the lid is only just slightly larger than the riser tube in the collection cup, this leaves less than 1mm of a gap for the skim to enter the cup...I let it run as such for a couple days just to see but there wasn't any real skim entering the cup, it just kinda stayed in the riser tube. I contacted Avast about these issues via e-mail he never did respond to me so I posted my query in his section of RC, he sent me a PM a few days later asking me to send him some pictures and I did...that was a couple weeks ago and I have recieved any further response.

Right now it's sitting high and dry.
