And to add to my insult, I forgot to put the lower air deflector in
place under the jugs............. I thought things went to well up to
the point of finding the bent tube and have gone down hill since. Not
discouraged though, Rome was not built in a day. I shall keep forging
ahead!

On a note, the tube did not bend in the middle only on the flexible end
luckily, so it should be fine but I still need to check the very end of
it where the seal is.

I feel much better now that Jan has razzed me a little, knowing that he
has been there and done that, whether he actually said it or not, makes
things better some how. LOL
