Jason notes that I forgot to post a photo of the other Mendel parts I’ve been building for the MakeryMendel. Â Below are photos of a stainless steel heater tube (the one that I didn’t ruin by welding a drillbit to the inside) as well as the “order form” that Brandon sent me. His drawings aren’t anything fancy, but we seem to have gotten the job done. Â For scale, the bushing in the photo is 1″ OAL, and the threaded rod heater is 1.5″ OAL. Â The picture with the fire is a prototype plaster bushing that we were testing. Â It’d probably work, but we dried it a bit too fast and it developed a nasty crack.
