Hey M - I think the SS tank looks much better, after you get use to it, you will use it all the time.

It was a little weird at first, not being able to see the juice level. But really, very basic and quick to get the feel for it. I'm loving the fact that I don't have to worry about it toppling over and busting my tank. When I get to order another, I'm going shiny to put on my currently unused shiny brass tube, for Sunday use. I'll use the Pyrex on that setup. You're right, I'm definitely digging the SS tank.

D, thanks for all the mentoring on the C+. I shaved a lot off of the learning and preference curve with your awesome assistance. Wish I had your photo skillz though!

Thanks buddy. On another note - your not the only one who toppled a tank. Mine hit the tile floor at work on Tues. Good thing for the SS for sure. Near had a heart attack, but it hit totally flat from about a foot and a half as I was bent over. How my tank and C+ didnt suffer any damage is beyond me.

GLAD to hear you had your SS tank on. I did order a couple of custom pyrex glass tubes from IBTanked for the Vela Latina. Backups, but now that I've gotten used to the SS tank, I'm not so sure I'll need them. When I send a tube back for my August mod, I'll probably send those tubes back for engraving, then I'll have SPIFFY spares.

Anyone wanting magnets, get your name on the list "over there" ..... the order is being called in Monday. :toast:

Good news, Blu. And thank you for putting this together. Good luck counting out all those little magnets. I can picture you trying to organize them into little piles and cursing as they all keep sticking to each other.

i know this isn't the best place to put this, but i'm getting desperate. My f5 button is broken from refreshing the classifieds for weeks, not a single caravela sighting. I NEED one, banged up, scratched or whatever it doesn't matter. Please if anyone has an extra and needs quick cash, let me know :(.

Good luck with your search for the gold at the end of the rainbow
