I put it together for photo's, but once I'd seen it in the flesh i couldn't bring myself to dismantle it.
The Crystal Dragons really are a thing of immense beauty, I'd challenge anyone to see and touch one and not want one. So with a little customizing by using the dome nuts and some 1/2"stainless tube for covers, a TW Torpedo half with 1/2" Rims cap for Clean In Place, and using my existing piping to my product condenser, here she is;
Just need to run a hose to the reflux condenser and back from the 3 way ball valve on the wall with a couple of thermotees and a valve in it. Then she's ready to run.
I can really see why Lloyd have to have one of these, they are too good to let go, seeing as i know the local distributor pretty well i was able to negotiate a pretty good price too.
Can't wait to run her.

The only sillae question is the one you don't ask folks...
@punkin with the clean in place CIP setup do you also drill a hole in the plates to allow self draining ?
fadge
I hadn't thought about that at this stage, i figured i'd rather just have some water sitting on the plates than tails.
Will have to see what happens, i have a feeling the water will drain around the caps over time.

A 2mm hole in each plate would help to slowly drain the plate after a run. I'd position it under a bubble cap, next to the riser, so it would have little to no affect on the performance.
The SS rod covers look great @punkin.
Holy crap its the Playno 7 tray tackle box with built in stubby holder.
