New front hood

[Windy Acres]

Got the hood all done this morning, the last one just wouldn't keep up, and I hate a steamy shack, I built this one with a drip channel, I am going to run a hose into my front pan's drip channel 1238512386

Good looking hood. Hope you get to try it soon too. We are about a month away. If this doesn't work, PM me. I have a basic concept on these front hoods that might make it function better.
I also had the goal of a much less steamy sugarhouse and achieved that with a different front hood design.
Do you have a picture of your old hood?

Chris
