Ever seen a float cork this bad?

[Mike Peters]

Just replaced this with a neoprene float. Didn't know they could get this bad.

I don't remember his name but he was building brass floats. I believe from California. They are the best. Neoprene floats are fairly heavy.

Yup, just did that job.

They sink to the bottom. Doesn’t get worse than that.

Frame it and hang in your garage. Great garage art! Wayne

Well, If you floated in a tub of gasoline for 90 years you wouldn’t look to great either.

How long was it in the bottle? How was the wine?

The problem with a brass float is that with the tanks full the float will hit the top of the tank and make a nice little tapping noise.
