[QUOTE="TreverT, post: 257513, member: 373"] Thanks for the kind words, guys. I haven't been round the forums in a while since I pretty much had to collapse after I finished October's work - It's a crazy month here for our biz. Not to mention that after I got all the pipe stuff done, I was way behind on my web comic and movie review blog too... Gah! Too much to do! Still, it's a lot more fun than being bored. I've done several of those meerschaum-lined expansion chambers before and they work really well. That Somalian meer I used is very porous and more absorbent of moisture than a plain briar chamber, so you don't get as much of the "sloshing around" effect as condensate accumulates. It's ridiculously complicated to do on a non-industrial scale so the labor on those pipes always runs their prices way up, though, and the space requirements of the design mean the pipe shapes must be really unusual as well.
