Recycling Printer Cartidges

Thanks everyone!
You know...I forgot to post a pic of the finished roaster on the flat.

Ed, I can't believe it. You have made a perfect duplicate of the Gern 78B Flux Roaster. You even have details that are hidden, and a wide load at that.
A real fun project. We will have to have Wayne build a 31C. That should be about right for his time frame. I have some old HP cartridges.

I think we are getting things mixed up. I was under the impression that the 7B was too big for a railroad flatcar. This roaster clearly states it is a 78B right on the side, which as everyone knows, is basically a model 7B but with solid state electronics, enabling the roaster to be built in a smaller casing, unfortunately is also more susceptable to moisture getting into the worm drive controller.

Correct me if i am wrong??

All correct, Dave, except the last point. This was true for early production models of the 78B, but re-designed GERN Flux-O-Seals have solved the moisture susceptibility problems. Field technicians have already upgraded all but 3% of the earlier models that are in service.
