I stuck paper on 1/4 ply then drew the formers ( i think i need a few more lines on them)to make it even more confusing :blink:
This one is going to be a make it up as i go job :unsure: :unsure:
The can was empty, they always seem to have two tanks when theres two turbines ?? cant see why, one tank with two feed pipes one fill and one vent should not be ok.
