    I built 2 that are similar to Leader's. I would not bottle without them.

    Just the end of the "stop" wire. I used half of wire tie around the nozzle and a rubber oring up higher to hold it.

    I understand how to mount it but what did you use for a stop wire and how does it close the valve?

    If you were pondering selling a product you built, would you tell how you made it??

    No I probably wouldn't. Enough said. I have a few probes in mind but did not want to shell out a bunch for R&D. Thanks Jeff
