Cynthia's Individual Contribution Page

Spring 2017 Contributions and Goals 

As a returning member to the CDC team, I designed and fabricated a new CHT that is grooved and quick to assemble using copious amounts of PVC glue. The float valves are modifed such that they can remain submerged under the water level in order to prevent calcium buildup. Also, overflow weirs and a clear lid are incorporated. 

Fall 2016 Contributions and Goals 

I fabricated a modular and chlorine resistant constant head tank. The new CHT utilizes non modified float valves and has some flexibility with adjustable head.

Spring 2017 Contributions and Goals 

As a returning member to the CDC team, I plan on designing and fabricating a new CHT that has overflow weirs and is simpler to fabricate. This includes decreasing time dedicated to welding by gluing and implementing wood working construction methods like dados to make pieces slot together.
