:handgestures-thumbupleft: looks neat

Is the body 3/4" ?

if so be carful that your alcometer has adequate space around the bottom bell/airchamber to allow distillate to pass without causing it to raise due to flow.

I had probs once with a 3/4" and incorrect readings that where fixed with a 1" body tube.

this will all depend on your Alcolmeter

Also it looks like you have provision for a future drain tape :handgestures-thumbupleft:
