Nice and neat sump! :lol:

Where did you get such a big filter bag? And where did you bought the pipe cutter ffrom? :P

You can get the filter bags that are used for washing machines. There are two types - one with big holes and the other very fine holes. Get the fine type and it is fine enough and come in different sizes (40 by 40, 40 by 50, 50 by 50, 50 by 60, 60 by 60). It costs from $3 - $6.

As for the pipe cutter you can get it from harware shop. I am staying in Tampines and I get it from a shop opposite my house at Tampines St 23 BLk 201D. If you want to get from this shop I will get you the shop's unit number. Just let me know.

Cheers.....
