Got the trailer built; tank mounted, vacuum pump goes on tomorrow. I need a vacuum gauge now. I hope my big valve holds vacuum.

FYI: Louisiana Sucks. it cost me $139.xx to get a license plate for the trailer. err. That made me go back on my mounting so that the trailer can be used without the tank if needed.

Looks like I will be pre-heating my oil (in collection tank) with solar, then doing the final heat up on electric shouldn't take many watts and will save LOTS of trouble + plumbing.

Also decided I need to re-enforce trailer hitch. If for no other reason; for my bike 55lbs on the end of a 28" lever/ mount bounces around quite a bit.
