Now... in canada it is still early. I've only had one cup-o-tea and I've used up my learning for that cup. Thanks boo. I forsee me abusing your knowledge again. @bpower You live in a beautiful countr...

@boo. That makes total sense. I never thought of the tube on the inside not going to the bottom and the bit of fluid that it can't reach. I can see me at some point getting a gravity feed one but for ...

He stored it mostly apart. I have already put it back together and checked as much as I can think of. Even sprayed thinner through it and everything seems to be working. @bpower Excellent. 👍...
