Yeah, I have a reason. It's a stupid nit-picky McMark reason. It's more about looking clean than function.
So.... my reason for not liking the heater channel method: The transition from the heater channel to the box section that runs under the tank (see image). There is no way to do it clean. You have to cut a hole in the heater tube inside the longitudinal which is nearly impossible to do cleanly. Then you have to route the lines through some very tight corners. All in all, there are just too many obstacles to doing it super perfectly cleanly. But, again, as far as function, they all work. I just go way way way way way way way way over the top on these things. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) Attached image(s)
