If you hold your filters over the steam it will get the hot and more flexable and seems that the syrup goes through quicker
How old is it and is it welded or soldered?
agreed go with a 2 by 6

Thanks for the input guys

I have never seen a mason drop tube evaporator as he calls it in person but to me it seems imposibble to clean the flue pan really good.
I would have 4 dividers in the syrup pan espiecaly if you will be adding flues in the back
