Thanks!

Post by Ben Dripn »

Hi All, first let me say thanks to all the experienced veterans on this site. Your wealth of knowledge and willingness to share has helped me complete my first VM relux column tonight and will be running soon. I'm using a 15.5 gal keg, large bayou burner on a home made stand. I used OD's easy flange to connect 2" copper column (great post BTW). I kinda cheated though and soldered 4 awg wire to a coupler and trued it up on the lathe, turned out awesome. I was so close to buying a premade tower but decided I could make a better one a good deal cheaper. Thanks again for all the help!
