No longer a lurker.

Thought i had better do as others have and say g'day.

Started building my old tower over 15 years ago :wtf: and only just finished it now, found this forum when i was looking for more information on how to run it and better improve it, well i soon learnt that the design is very old school (CM) and in actual fact it's most likely not real useful at all :angry-banghead: but anyway, it got me kicked off with the hobby and i've made a few adjustments so it at least would make an okay pot still,,,,,sorta!

Main reason i signed up was i wanted to see the pics BT1 posted of his glass bubbler, suffice to say i really liked the design and have started to build my own, will throw a post up in the correct section soon.
