mgmrick, your holes look a little bigger in your pic, but its tough telling. I made sure to wrap the wicks around the posts when i primed and put back together. I think i flooded the bottom by primer puffing while i was trying to test the draw of the thing. I think it will be ok once i refill (as long as i can come to terms with the tight draw and not keep primer puffing!!)
Hey Tao, if you keep having the tight draw, let me know, and I'll send you a drill bit to ream the holes above your threads with. It is a .8mm or about 1/32.
Least I can do for running such a smooth coop.
