It took a bit sinking it into the 18 as it was a bit dented :angry-banghead:
but in the end was worth it i think 8-}

from here the plan was for a inline thumper with 4inch riser with a 6inch cap using a 50lt keg with the middle section cut out ;-)
as i had a short bit of 6 inch to play with, but another trip to the scrappy and found this :teasing-tease: 6in to 1in reducer :handgestures-thumbupleft:

to easy plans change again so the 6in will now become the riser and will have a 8in cap :shhh:
