Be very careful with those stripped screws... If they're stripped you run the risk of having a big accident (read: VERY BIG). I bought 10 of each clamp and I change them out whenever I see the stripping start.

If the gasket starts to bust out of the side of the spool , then u have overtightened.

You could just freeze your tubes and butane in dry ice for partial dewaxing. If done quickly, you get some great results.
You'd just need to swap out the hoses to stainless braided

Denatured alchy and dry ice, get your butane to -70....
Barely pickup any waxes, if any...
..I've been using the 1# unit with 2" and 3" columns ..everything goes according to plan every time..
..I have access to 99.999% research grade, pure n-butane and propane ..any thoughts on how to go about charging the recovery tank with these 2 other tanks ..rather than charging the 'system' like I do with cans..? I have a very precise mail scale that handles that thing in it's empty - full range.
..if the appion does not like running dry ..and full vac on the guage where i'm at is close to -24hg ..would I stop my final recovery at -16 hg rather than to -22hg like in the sea level directions ..?
..any thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Got a 5# unit on the way, was going to get a few different columns from glacier. Any other upgrades i should get for it? Im use to running a MKIII, excited to get a 12x12 bottom! Should make the small nug runs pretty quick.
Planning on running with storage tank in dry ice, freezing my columns overnight, probably throw the sight glass in to so theres less thermal shock. Im assuming the seals for the sight glass are viton so i ordered some PTFE seals for the sight glass and whole machine. Also got PTFE stainless braided hoses.
Kinda want to get a couple pieces from glacier and a long PTFE SS hose and make it so i can flood from the bottom then dump back down into the collection pot like i usually run the MKIII. should be pretty simple with a couple more ball valves and a tee here and there.

How is the taste and smell this way ?
I've been doing some research on purchasing everything and building my own bhogart style extractor. I'm running into one issue. From what I see on glacier tanks website, their reducers to reduce the 6" collection pot don't have a tube hanging down in to clamp a coffee filter. Is this true or just the way the pictures look? Judging by the pictures of bhogarts unit, they aren't the welded end caps, so any info on this would be appreciated!! Thanks in advance!!
Anyone have a link for ptfe seals for the sight glass?
Thanks for the quick reply Kcar!! Is your model one of the new designs with triclamp top and bottom of your collection chamber? I did see that they have lids with cutouts and weld in ferrules as an option, so that may be the route I have to go. The trick is finding a welder in my area that I trust enough. And just wondering if theres any reason to run ptfe seals over viton on your sight glass? Did I miss something along the pages where viton had issues?
