Solo trip for me this time. Anjie has a bday party to take Jimmy to. The 914 has no front bumper at this time. Even better !! with no front bumper you won't have to touch up any paint from the pipe cramming (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) See it's all working out now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |

I think I am going to bow out, probably.
I want to have as much done on my car before Scotty drives up, and its looking like the weekend of the 1st may be my only chance to actually get QT with the 914. I've got this dream that before Scotty leaves Sunday, my car will have been on a test drive. I've got work to do to make this dream even close to reality. Zach |

VBWSIII is still on for Saturday November 1st. We begin at Amphora's Diner at 8AM.
Shop opens at 9AM! I need feedback from Zymurgist for the "Zymurgist Beer Mashmaster Modification" A friend of mine gave me this old 15 gallon stainless keg. Is this what your looking for Ken? If so we can chop and weld it into whatever you want at VBWS and/or build that MashMaster frame you mentioned. I think I have a S.S. drain valve we can put in the keg bottom and cut open the top and add a removable lid. Let me know! Email me a rough sketch for the frame so I can put together some materials ahead of time........ email me at: vwporsche@verizon.net (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) |

Hmmm. the keg is pretty cool, although I've never heard of anyone using that kind as a kettle... normally the straight sided Sankey keg is used. I think it's because the Sankey kegs don't have a bunghole on the side. Not sure that I can use that one.

Huhhuh Huhhuh Huhhuhhuhhuh - He said bunghole.
FWIW, you can easily weld it shut. Root, do you have either solarflux or a dual regulator setup to purge the inside? Solarflux would prob be simpler given the interior volume. I could bring either. |

D'oh! I never think about welding as an answer because I don't have a welder. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
Yeah, Hoff-Stevens kegs can be turned into brew kettles... it's about the only thing they are good for since they aren't made any more. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Hoff-Stevens kettle |

Solarflux would prob be simpler given the interior volume. I could bring either. Yep! good point 'smdubovsky', I got regulators and argon for purging. Can weld up the bung (have a lot of bung background experience), add a drain port, cut-off the top whatever we need. Guys.... we have the technology even though it's heavily influenced by 'old school' methodology. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) |

I'm 90% out. I need the time to work on my car. Way too few weekends to do the things that I want to do, rather then the things others want or need me to do.

Zach,
Since I am not sure about my schedule, it would likely be less of a stretch for me to come to your house since I will be in the neighborhood. I also need to study for the Step 2 of my licensing exam at the end of the month. If I were responsible, I would stay local. So, I am about 80-40 in favor of staying (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

I could just drop it at Matt's some time. I will be about 1hr away from his place for the next month.
