I would change the fitting on the tank.
It gotta be easier

If only.


A 2.25" boss would be very big stuck on the side...and as some one said the element would be a lot higher up the boiler...I've found an element (China) it's winging itself here... eta end of month....hence the need for a SSR.

I banged an order into a Chinese supplier that I use frequently,on the 12th,knowing that they are "on holiday" 16th-26th.
They usually ship next day.
They are starting early this year,it has not been dispatched yet!

Doh...fingers crossed...now't we can do about it. This is the problem when we can't buy what we want in the UK.

I needed a 2w Potentiometer, so I ordered a pack of 5 from China on the 8th, they came this morning....how's that. First time I've bought from China..I don't think it'll be the last..

I have always been impressed buying from China - they are also good when stuff goes wrong.

oh well, this can go in both ways: when I tried to import a very simple thing (something for decoration) from China, in the time before StillDragon, we ordered sample orders from various producers.

In the end, only one sample was like I ordered and the order itself was 30% damaged. It was a really simple item, but they just did not do well. Fortunately it was not much money for the samples, but the order itself was significant and the time until we got at least some money back was half a year....

Small items, where money loss do not hurt may be a good idea sometimes, but bigger things, even more, when warranty is important, are too risky for me.

StillDragon is made in China, this is no sectret. But there are things, that we don't do any more, like for example Tri-clamps could be bought cheaper from some factories, but we buy them only from one and they are not the cheapest on the market. Why? The cheaper ones broke and did not hold on long time. This is something, I don't want to see on a still with alocohol vapours in action. Sometimes only cheap is not all...
