I know its an old thread but the idea is still great!
Trying to build one of these with PVC and sprinkler heads. My problem is that I cant get the collar out of the return and I DID buy the little tool that is supposed to remove it. I am trying righty tighty lefty loosey and turning the tool with a pair of vice grips. Im getting concerned I'm going to hurt the collar. Any tips or is there another tool? The one I'm using is a big plastic key from Leslie's.
Another thought. Is the return collar a 2" thread on the outside? I guess if it is I could thread a 2" to 1 1/2" reducer on and then plug my pool cooler into that reducer.
