If I am not mistaken, the logic behind using paint cans instead of glass jars was because of the added safety factor.
From what I have read on this site, many people have gone to this method for that exact reason. I don't understand the reasoning behind the poll of who uses pikkle jars and who uses pipe. Well, after thinking about it, I believe I do understand the reasoning behind the poll.
The original thread was about the top of Don's container imploding.
The sole purpose of what I worte was to make suggestions on how a vacuum chamber could be made stronger. Nothing more. Nothing less.
For those who didn't understand my original post, please do not read any further. It will only cause you to become more confused.
I am not going to write to my congressmen asking him to introduce legislation to ban pickle jars. I also am not going to write to my congressman urging him to replace pickle jars with steel pipe. Well, maybe not threaded steel pipe. How about welded up steel pipe?
I am not going to write to my congressman suggesting that he introduce legislation banning anyone from using a pikkle jar as a vacuum chamber.
Hopefully, the welding will make some of the anti-threading contributers happy.
I was not going to comment any more on this subject, but some of the comments made on the other thread were totally unrelated to what I was trying to contribute, and completely opposite of what I wrote.
Not mentioneing any names, but one example is that the pressure is on the inside of a champagne bottle. I knew that. That is why I described the pressure as being against the top of the dome, and the dome being convex from the inside and concave from the outside.
In some ways, this forum is like a lot of others that I joined and then abandoned:
Some people read the lines.
Some people read between the lines.
Others don't read the lines at all.
This will probably get me banned from this site, but there were a few things written that I decided not to let slide. And those things were comments on stuff that were the exact opposite of what I meant and what I was trying to suggest.
Anymore comments anyone wants to make to me, please use e-mail. This forum is not the place for flare ups. No forum is, and I apoligize that I let this little bit of insignificiant aggravation get to me.
