FFM heater and control of it

True Leroy. I need to get off my sorry butt and put my stuff in so I can start running my wvo. Cant seem to talk myself into crawling under the truck. Seems like something else is always needing doing bad lately and the truck is sitting there with a butchered up fuel system and not able to run! LOL Afraid to let the old girl sit to long. Old trucks sit still and then wont start!

i wasn't trying to say a fuge is better than socks, i always wanted one and found it at a good price. i will use it because it is faster because i won't have to wait for settling/socking and pouring to diff barrels. i hope to have a 10 foot place dedicated in the shop to be able to take care of business and know where everything is at.

cool. i need to get a supply quick. i am totally OUT!
those fuge's aren't the type to use. a medical fuge only holds vials, not quite big enough unless you have a model airplane. the fuge i have has a 'bowl' or 'rotor' that spins, holds 1/2 gallon of liquid and is held to a shaft with a positive lock. don't want anything to loosen at those rpm's.
BTW, this is what i was referring to earlier:
