    Freeze plugs are one of the many items used to complete a solvent trap. With the link provided, among many discussions on line.

    People have used FP's shot glasses even untold hours on milling machines and lathes, in search that desirable finished item. My next one, once approved will probably be made with flat washers, why not.

    Genius indeed. I love capitalism. Those baffles were a PITA to try to make myself.

    My only concern with this method is that you cannot vary the spacing without cutting them down, and the most effective ones all seem to have larger spacing at the back (threaded end) and very tight spacing at the front (exit end).




    ETA: To be honest, I didn't quite understand the purpose of expensive little storage spaces inside of a flashlight tube... but then I saw the "fr33ze plug" reference.

    spacers for "additional storage" are easy to make yourself.
