> Hi Garry, Well, I can start with a couple of excuses. Winter arrived a little earlier than usual this year. Both snow and cold temps. Also I’m working daytime now until summer, which leaves me with weekends for playing. Long story short I haven’t got as far as would have liked on the project. However it was mild -17C (1F) today and a total of 4 hours of daylight so I got some cutting and welding done outside in the snow pile smile These are some of the pics I’ve taken so far.

Look at this skizz of Jans gasifier. The domes are great at releafing stress from heat cicles. A 90° weld is more suseptible to cracking. Even worse is rectangular geometry, one of the reason my gasifier fell in batle.
