Colin gave his new veggie filtration device a shot this evening:

Jimmy, his veggie sucking gun is almost as impressive as your flex boot gun.





The pump for his filtration device runs off a car battery, so Ol' Turbo's lovely new white battery was drafted into service.





Look at this system in its own self contained pod. It shouldn't make a mess, right?



The initial test, going back into the original crud tank:



Success!!! For about 10 seconds, then the veggie slowed down to a crawl.



Dejection:



More Dejection, and rain:



Colin's new system will not prime enough to have a decent flow. We eliminated the pump as the issue, so it seems something within the filter itself is letting air in. His new system is advertised to filter up to 6 gallons a minute, but we only managed about 6 in an hour. Colin and I managed to dump a few quarts of veggie down the driveway as well. Hopefully I won't get a nastygram from the HOA.
