*My first design !*
When you have objects & toys floating on your swimming pool, they might end-up being attracted by the water suction from the skimmer. This could result in :
* the toys being inside the skimmer and your kids will look for them
* depending on the water level, the objects blocking the skimmer entrance might reduce drastically the water flow, ending up in the skimmer sucking air instead of water and affecting badly your pump system.
A few notches are available at different heights on the vertical bars to position the horizontal ones where they are the most usefull depending on your water level.
Update 2021-06 (pictures with the blue one) : i have added a v2 with larger & stronger surfaces. Gluing them is also a good idea to keep them in place once you find you correct setup.
Tip: it's worth having a strong infill >40% or at least 4 perimeters to give resistance to the assembly. Especially if you have a cleaning robot in your pool, you want it to be really
