Starts with V... very voluptuous Visuliser is what I’m thinking

Doubleuj is correct! Visualiser it is. Well the column anyway, I already have a home made glasser so already have the other bits. But geeze what a step up this is. Thanks to Andrew for the fantastic and speedy service. You must have shares in a bubble wrap company mate :-)

Check out the glass, at least 5 x thicker than the thin primus glass.

I am most excited about these seals. Even if you just have a glasser with Primus glass I would get these seals and make life so much easier

The bubble plate just sits in the slot in the centre of the seal. All goes together so nice and easy

My current column has perf plates but I could never build bubble caps this well

And here she is. I cant take good pics so it really doesnt do it justice. Will get some pics and vids of it running this weekend. I have some TPW and hopefully a pure molasses rum wash to put through it.

Anyone got any tips on how to clean the inside of a copper tube. I have a 1m 4" copper tube I want to make into a packed section but god knows what was in it previously and its pretty black. I cant get my arm far inside it.

Great looking still mate, for a minute there I was thinking the V stood for Very long wait :teasing-tease:
Those glass cylinders are awesome aren’t they :music-deathmetal: I’ve got them on mine, accidentally dropped one and it chipped the concrete :laughing-rolling:
As for cleaning the 4”, I’d use a citric bath for 24hrs then use a brush or sponge or scourers on a stick then a good rinse.
Should do the trick, enjoy watching those bubbles

If it’s really bad and citric doesn’t move it try this https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/too ... 12536.html
Attach to a drill and go at it then finish with citric
