[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2422771, member: 15054"] This was a fresh cut piece with bark removed..only a short piece an inch or so Then it was inserted into a plastic tubing...i would think some flexible clear stuff would work. like what you use to clean the fish tank. Epoxy and a hose clamp to keep water from getting between the wood and tubing. I bet a funnel was attached to the top of the hose and water poured in. The small piece i feel would drain quite fast. Will try it in a couple moments. OK so no FLOW It has been over 25 minutes with my tubing and pine "cork" trying to flow some unsweatened tea through it. The 1" diameter 1" long piece was cut from a pine branch and then bark removed and sanded down to a tick over 7/6" diameter , inserted into a 7/16" hose funnel on top. NO FLOW yet. I did sand both ends with 120grit maybe that closed up the pores. Will try again with rough cut ends. Maybe 1" long is too long. [/QUOTE]
