looks nice!
did you did something with the base on the inside, or is it just flat?
however. Nice job :)

Its just flat, ill try something new with copper...thks!
I was wondering how much does that piece of aluminum or copper cost?
I could get one but it is pretty expensive

the aluminum is not that expensive, i paid like $20 each one, and the cooper will be like $60-70, but i dunno the prices there in europe.

Nice tube! That sounds really cheap for ALU/CU... it's an absolute fortune here :(, as well as everything else though I suppose.

Nothing to be sorry about, that what this sub-forum is all about. Collectively sharing our ideas and designs. I love to see others work. 2yrs ago DI/ln2 forum was just about dead, now look at it :D. Conrgratz on your project :toast:.
