Make the Partridges round syphon more GROOOOVY

[Billhag]

I think most people have seen madphisto.net 's post showing the Partridges round syphon,

if not here it is;-

Syphon again, forget about Hamburger Stackers

Well, I thought I'd have a little play with it whilst getting it ready for my backpack and see

if I could add that 'Burger Stacker' look to it.

After having a good ol' ponder over how I would do it, I finally came up with a really easy and simple

neat little trick for it.

So, see what you think, even if you don't use it I hope it gives yous a few ideas of possible other

ways to go with it

I basically got hold of some lids from some sweet / cake containers (candy in the US )

and trimmed the lip off of them.

Then all you need to do is just stick them on

(I've used Blu-tack to mock them up in the photos)

And that's it, nice and simple, but does the trick

*Very* inventive - great job Billy!!

[Rolf]

Too cool Billy.

I might do the same on mine, thanks for your creative trick mate

[Caomhanach]

Wow - that is very inventive...

[theGreatSot]

You guys always blow me away with your custom built stuff! Too cool Bill!

[TD-1536]

Awesome, I've got to upgrade.

Billy, you are a genius. I've been pondering this very thing.

[Billhag]

Shucks, I'm getting all embarrassed now

Thanks guys

The good thing about this little trick is that you're not limited to just using it on the Partridge round syphon.

You can use it with a normall syphon and instead of hunting down the burger stackers you only have to find

a nice round container roughly the same size and just add the lid rims and bobs ya uncle, fanny's ya aunt

jobs done.

For all the guys in the UK, the Marks & Spencers Flap jacks, Mini-rolls containers are purfect for this

and it gives you a brilliant excuse for eating the yummy contents

Billy you intuitively answered my next question what pots.M&S here I come.

[Billhag]

OK, here's another little trick

After studying the pictures of the original syphon and then looking at the Partridges

it kept on bugging me about the taper at the bottom of the upright tube where it meets

the dome of the round canister.So I thought I'd have a play around with it

Here you can see the difference compared to the UK syphon that we normally use

with the burger stackers.

So, after spotting this in the supermarket I just had to see if I could get it to work

Cut down and sanded

And finally held in postion

We must be the only people in the World who study a toilet syphon in this

much detail
