How do you modify skimmers to work better?

One simple way is to wind some fishing line on the needle wheel. I did this to my CSS 65 and wow what a differance. For a couple bucks and 15 minutes it is sure worth a shot. The first time I tried it, I added too much and it really didn't work much better. When I reduced it down some it really works nice. What is really nice is that fishing line can removed very easy to put it back the way it was. Here is a picture of where I got the idea.
