LW, thanks for posting this. Having been wanting to see the humper thumpers in action and this is good overview of how it's setup.

Seriously you got me thinking of making a inline thumper to go under my pot still head. And now I can't get it out of my head. I find the right pot and its going to happen.

There has been all kinds of talk about this rig. Its great to get to see it. Thanks for the vid. I have a feeling there is going to be a bunch of guys doing some mods coming up real soon.

Okay where the heck is the next vid Larry? I am glad you are posting this.
I have stated before that you were ahead of the curve when you built it. Your rig has a lot of versatility that other designs cant do.

I can see guys building bubble cap flutes with fill ports for flavor charging.

When you post the whole thing together and maybe running please discuss overall theory so that everybody gets it.

Nice job amigo. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Breathe, man, breathe.

I can help you with the uploads tomorrow if you want to reshoot anything.

I didn't realize you were essentially getting all of your alcohol out of the boiler and into the column/thumper like that. Very interesting.

I hate it. I need to redo. I'm all over the place and not making my point at all.

You are killing me! Too funny. :lol:

Write a script Larry. I have tried to make a video before and suffered badly until I wrote a script to follow even though I knew everything I wanted to say.
