not the clearest pics in the world but heres another angle.

dont know if you can tell, but i drilled holes through the copper instead of hack-sawing half way through. hope it doesnt clog too easily.

Nice work. Not that I know anything about it. Do the holes go all the way through the pipe and would it be less likely to clog if installed upside down? Are you going to be insulating the tun and leaving it or direct heating and stirring for the mash?

GL,
the holes are drilled right through so there is one on each side of the pipe. hopefully this will help reduce the chance of a stuck sparge.
dont have anything top insulate with so i will have to apply heat as needed. this shouldnt be a problem now with my not-even-out-of-the-box-yet three ring cast iron burner!!
