But it is made to handle allot vapor, allot more then the normal Liebig. I am pretty sure Im gonna have to through allot of heat to this thing to make it work correctly.
With the degree of metalsmithin shown already KS, you could easily build yourself a new burner.....
as far as the lighting I do think that would work. and I may later try to do that. but for now I have scratched that. It can be added at a later date...
Yeah, get her built and broken in, then add the frills man....

Hey Sam, this type of column could be built from 3" and would work well, this would reduce the price of copper and fittings. I have built plated columns using 2", remember my Evil Twins, but 2"is a bit fiddly due to the small bore size.Samohon wrote:Been shoppin for a meter of 4" copper, but all they want to sell me is a 3M length.. Damn its pricey..
May have to go the 3" route OD, 4" is just big bucks. Yeah man, this would also save me $$$ on the fittings...olddog wrote:Hey Sam, this type of column could be built from 3" and would work well, this would reduce the price of copper and fittings.

somehow,,,, i feel responsibleKentucky shinner wrote:yep If I were starting over again I think I would go with 3" because of fitting cost. I should have done more research before begining, I just never had any idea they would be nearly as expensive as they are. Oh well if it works as well as I hope I will have this baby for years, Hell I may be buried with it if my wife has anything to do with it. I just hope I get to finish it firs.....
No shes actually pretty cool with it. He she cant wait to see it run either. I am thinking about naming this baby CP30, remember from star wars.. That is what all this shinny copper reminds me of. What do you think? through this whole build I thought well a name will come to me while I am building then last night I looked at the column with the sight glasses installed and that is what I thought of.
Oh well nuff a that shit.
