Here's where this one starts getting interesting, today I've started putting together a home grown version of a bubble ball.

Did I mention that your good at this shit?
what's the word on yer boiler? Did ya see the temp plot for Mimi's latest run with just the wee single ball? Some great new data is getting ready to displace a lot of doggma.. Soon the bok will be nothing more than an easy build.No disrespect intended.

Back to work on the VM today, playing around with the bubble stump.

It's going to be modular with adjustable downcomer heights, this would be a great way to build a modular bubbler that you could just add or remove section by using tri clamps (I'll end up doing this too :shifty: )

Pics.
