Having had the bright idea of building a "Fumeless Processor" on G- Mark's design along with the Sean Park's Standpipe wash tank I was in need of a compact way to "house" it all as I live in an urban setting (an apartment) So I figured I would build a cabinet which could accomodate the two side by side with storage space under for 22 liter pails, and the plan came together fairly well. The cabinet is built, mostly painted, butthen the torpedo came in the form of the landlord who insisted he did not want any closed cabinets in the heated garage, even if it DID sit next to the Benz that I am paying rent for. A "home" was needed, so I approached the organic farmer we deal with on the weekend and it looks like the cabinet and it's contents now have a "home" where there is electricity to power the unit and water to wash with. This may force my hand of sorts to use potassium hydroxide instead of the easier-to-use sodium hydroxide as then he could use the by- product as a crop fertilizer once the methanol is recovered (if I understand it right), so there's something for everyone and everyone ends up happy with the deal .... the way it SHOULD be, Ha! At first though I will use the NaOH until I get a good grip, then move on to the KOH once the confidence is well established. Anyway, where there is a will there is a way, and it is often in colaboration with others that the best results take place. (it also helps to keep one's ego in check) :)
