I decided to make myself a mixer for calcium water. I liked how it was done here. I will take the pipe from here. The fittings are available in Kyiv at UDT. I found a motor from a microwave - this is what is written on it: GALANZ SYNCHONOUS MOTOR GAL-5-240-TD(1) AC 220/240V 50/60Hz 5/6 r/min 4W. The question is - will it work? How long can it run without stopping? As I understand, it doesn't run continuously in a microwave. What should I pay attention to when making it? What is the best way to glue acrylic glass? I used to glue it with dissolved acrylic in a solvent. Has anything more interesting come up?

Pure dichloromethane.

Or with pure chloroform...

So great, the seam is not visible.

New - I glue it myself with dichloroethane. Chloroform allows for more mistakes (no visible drips, dries faster), but in my opinion, it is less durable because it doesn't penetrate as deeply.

I didn't read about the glues, damn. Will this one do? Or is this one better:

"ACRIFIX 116" is the only one available, they say it's free of dichloromethane, meaning it's not harmful and can be used in household conditions. Who has used it? Or should I get dichloromethane instead?

ACRIFIX 192 is a good adhesive that does not set immediately and is transparent.

ACRIFIX 192 - expensive, though. It will take more than one bottle for the aquarium. And here is another quote: "For bonding parts of cast acrylic, free of internal stresses and directly connected." Free of internal stresses????
