Thanks everyone for your input, the ol cogs are turning upstairs. You all have given me some really valid information, thank you kindly.
Here in Albany we’ve had an absolutely stunning day, picnic, bikes, beach & ice cream. Kids had a ball. Still found 1/2 hour to knock out a couple more little jobs.
I did cut som 4” discs for my RC and a spare In case I put a baffle in my RC. Used a hole saw, and it’s probably the last time I do that, first one came out rough, next one not so rough, third one, well on par with the second. Still, they fit pretty snuggley in the pipe after a bit of attention with a file. Only tried to twist my wrist off about a dozen times when the hole saw would grab. I’ve got bruises on my leg where the battery of the drill kept sacking into me when the hole saw grabbed. I’m so glad I screwed the plate down as I would be in hospital now with half my leg cut off. Still the kids watching through my sons bedroom window thought watching me battling was hilarious.

I then tec screwed a stainless pot scourer to a length of 3/8 pipe I had kicking around, loaded it up into the drill and started cleaning up the inside of the block head. Probably a pointless exercise as I still need to fit my easy flanges and cut & solder in the 2” outlet. But it sure does look awesome. Huge difference to the streaky black insides that it came with.
