Chevyman, you look like you did a good job. Very artistic and creative. The large onion head should allow you plenty of space to avoid puking and such. I think your one inch sizing on the top will be just fine. I doubt you could bend any larger tube. My only word of caution is that from the pictures it looks like you may not have constant downhill flow on your worm. It may just be the picture though as it looks like you did your homework on this. Worms are pretty picky about setting just right to flow smooth.

Looks good! :thumbup:

Thanks Hound Dog.
The worm thankfully has good constant slope, but the picture is a bit deceiving, I took several pictures of the worm but couldn't get just the perfect picture angle to make it not look funny.
Still waiting on my ferments to finish, then I can do all of the cleaning and sac runs and then finally a finished sip..

Well,the still went to it's new home yesterday. The friend I built it for decided that he actually wants it :thumbdown: , I was hoping he was going to forget about it. Maybe someday when I have some extra cash and somewhere to use it I'll make my own. I think he is going to join this wonderful forum, I'll make sure he links to this build so you guys can find out how it did on it's maiden voyage..
Thanks guys for all of the input during the build.. :clap:
