No problems guys, I hope you find a good use for them.

I won't have time to muck about with the champane ones for a bit, finish this job next week then I'm off to SA for a couple of family thingy's for a while.

nah haven't had mine turn up... though i thought you may have overlooked my one as i sent the enevelope pretty late

 

[NickB]

Yep, thanks Jeff, got mine yesterday. Have yet to try it in anger though

Cheers

 

[Batz]

OK sounds as if they are slowly getting there, perhaps the camels where a bit tired leaving Kin Kin on Monday.

 

[Thirsty Boy]

mine arrived yesterday - Thanks Batz!

Thanks Batz arrived yesterday and tried her out this morning... Standard Murray's long neck was fine, as was a cooper's tallie. No good on an LC Pint bottle (cause of the stub neck i assume) nor a Saison dupont 'Champagne Style' bottle (too fat)

Thanks again mate... very generous
:icon_cheers:

Thanks Batz recieved mine today and already cut myself with it , damn those points are sharp. Works well on the tallies ive got but as argon says no good on the LC Pint bottles so might have to knock up something similar to NickJDs filler for those.

Sorry about that, most got a file up on the points but I may have missed a couple :unsure:

It's funny how many years you can live never once realising the significance of the lip at the top of all bottles and its purpose in bottling. This whole CPBF thing makes me look at bottles differently now.

All PETs are made to run on the same machinery by the looks.

Coke factory (scroll to 4:30 for the filling, although it's all interesting)

you know the whitelabs yeast vials?

PET bottle blanks. Stickem in a blow moulding machine heat em up and shove in air. PET bottles. very very standardised across the beverage industry.

That's the trouble going there, I can't help picking up a few more things after a quick look around.
I badly want one of these, although I think they are way too expensive for what they are.
