x2 on building one like this :D
I was toying with different design ideas, and when I saw this, I jumped at it.

After work, I had an hour to kill, so I hit the local Tradelink up, got all the pipe and fittings I need, except for the tri-clamp, which I ordered off eBay.
Will post up a build of it once I get into the soldering etc.

Thanks for the idea :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Yep, I used to plug 1 end and fill it up with water and add citric acid :handgestures-thumbupleft:
Came out clean and ready to go again :happy-partydance:

G'day Davis,
Sorry being a bit slow to reply. The liebig is 700mm of 3/4 over 1/2". I crimped the 1/2" . Here's a post about it viewtopic.php?f=24&t=10243
The 2" section was only 200mm.
