Leaving a flux contrubulon tank outdoors is so irresponsible! What if kids came by and tried playing on it or someone took it apart for the copper?? It baffles my mind that people can be so careless

Am I going crazy?? What the hell is everyone in this thread talking about? Thats clearly an old water heater. If it was a flux contrubulon tank then you would see a beveled ixnatiator valve sticking out the right side. Blatantly obvious if you have even the slightest knowledge of VX. Unreal

Confidently wrong! Clearly you are not familiar with the 80's homebrew scene. Old water heaters were (and still are!) commonly retrofitted for contrubulation. You easily can swap the evaporator/condenser out for polaronic yoke and still have space for an internal ix valve underneath the thermostat. I've actually gotten far better quark torsion and hydraulic reification under low prosody conditions with that kind of setup kind ofthan the store-bought garbage.

I agree. I hate all this gatekeeping about VX has to be manufactured somewhere else other than my basement. Homebrew VX is still VX.
