Nah no bribes yet, but I really need to learn to say no on this occasion.

Maybe once I get my 6" SS modular rig sorted I will offer this one up, but for now I just want my own rig to run when I need one :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Is that a 3" product condenser Mac, or 2.5"?

I noticed you went the 4" reflux condenser too, but you reckoned the best RC you'd used was a 3"? :think:

2.5" PC has 9 x 10mm tubes in it, the RC is just a stock standard one I built a while ago & decided to put to work.
