I saw thread closed and thought you were closing the entire thread. Got worried for a second as I am looking forward to seeing how people are liking this tank. ANd watching it go from prototype to finished production model. When all the kinks are gone and they go into production I want one.

I also meant to ask earlier, I saw you post that there were no colors. Is that for now, or will the production model be in black only. Either way I am still in. I'll just have to pick up a color one from Jonboy or a colored Liquinator when they are out. (You know there are some times where us gals have to be color coridinated)

For now they will be clear and black , I have to get some made first ! the problem is that all of my suppliers/machine shops are busy !

Now your just making up crap so you don't look so bad.

I at least for the time being am NOT deleting your posts or your cronies that you " WARNED ME ABOUT " remember that line , " I will have people all over your forum slamming you " ????

If there's any truth to this, Gummy, you're not looking like a Boy Scout yourself.

Clearly, your claim has no legal legs to stand on. If, in fact, you've threatened extortion in an effort to get paid for a tank design—the fundamental elements of which long predated your own—you've forfeited the moral high ground, the question of ethics you claim to be your bedrock.

On a side note, playing the race card now—"they told us that the Indian land would be ours as long as the rivers run too. So It's nothing new"—only makes you look silly.

I know you to be much, much finer than that.

Well the clear part is always good. I like to see my liquid levels. I was just talking about the endcaps.

Black is no big deal. I've got my black liquinator on my new woody BP now and it actually looks pretty sharp. I want to have 4 tanks (2 for me and 2 for the hubby) I think my plan is going to be to buy 2 of your tanks whenever they ready and in whatever color or colors they are offered in and stop using the liquinators. Yours will be my "function" tank as I have no doubt when they are complete they will function better then what I have now.

Maybe I can get a few dollars for the liquinators on the classifieds or send them to AG. The liquinators are cool, but I just do not like the fact that there is no consistency. I have had 5 liquinators in my hands (2 were exchanged) and all 5 perform differently.

Then for the other 2 tanks (and I feel a bit ashamed saying this here) I think I am going to try to get 2 Jonboy's as my 'fashion" tanks. I can't help myself they are pretty!

Was wondering if the liquid is in contact with aluminum? Sorry if the question is redundant, haven't read the whole discussion.

YES !!!! ( love the avatar ! )

and Yes it is BUT the aluminum is anodized this is a treatment that adds VERY good corrosion protection to the aluminum so it will not degrade.

Yep, a VERY tight fit. I think you're correct on that being the issue.

OK thanks ! the fit was VERY tight on these between the tube and caps might be part of the problem ?
I removed .005" from the o ring groove .

The aluminum is anodized, so there's no contact with the bare metal.

I don't deserve Kudos. I read all 8 pages of the thread in the modders forum. I got to page 8 at 2:26pm (my time) and was getting ready to respond after I read it all, even had a few posts already picked for multi quoting. but I got to the last post closing the thread at 2:25pm. So basically if I had not been a minute late, the kudos would have been undeserved.

I have so much I want to say as I feel bad that Mike has to put up with this BS and in my heart I know who is right. But I know so little about patent law that I am probably much better off keeping my mouth shut instead of putting my foot in it.

So I am carefully walking through the minefield and discussing the tank I am very much looking forward to buying.

No .... !!! Moo is a calming influence !

THe BS is over , back to the regular schedule.

Funny, you say that. To bad it isn't yesterday, if it was I would have been able to come up with a bright side to it. I re-read some of the post I made, and yesterday seemed to have been my look on the bright side of things day.

I had a bright side for the hours that AG keeps, I had a bright side for all new yorkers in the tropical storm (stolen from mayor bloomberg), I had a bright side to the fact that AG is being stalked by a camel, I had a bright side to the bad batteries, I even had a bright side to the fact that you guys keep calling moo!

Today however, I can come up with no bright side... other then the fact that I am happy to be a calming influence.

So lets talk tank!
