    @notorio (& @Quetzalcoatl ) No, you are incorrect. *I* am the one who isn't being clear, good sir. :) (And also I'm doing this all from a tablet tonight and getting fed up with all kinds of stupid (site UI and tablet stupid... NOT people... I keep getting crap like letters duplicated and other...

    We've known that's how air seals are closed in the design. If the seal is working, it PREVENTS airflow across the silicone. The rest of the airpath is through the bottom, through the bowl, through the holes in the glass screen, to the second straw. That's the airpath on draw. Although there is...

    I haven't and I tend to favor a smaller load, but have tried different sizes. Are you tamping it down? (I'm gonna guess "yes") Hmmm... have you tried the cotton idea? I haven't yet. The again there is the solution of, when drawing "a little TOO hard" of: Don't. :rofl: Are you speaking of the...

    @Snappo I changed my statement when I realized that just because there is one problem doesn't exclude another. My apologies. But one problem or two separate different ones, you are correct. ------- @notorio Thank you for the picture. --------- We've known since well back in the original...

    OKAY EDITING THIS POST. It seems there is a problem with a film or a coating to PREVENT scratches that is either delaminating or just separating. I think this is what most people are seeing. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean that your screen can't also or either be physically scratched. Two different...

    Sorry. Poor choice of words as hypercritical has a negative connotation, does it? I didn't mean "critical" in the negative sense. Is hyper-observant better? I meant to say that if anyone is going to catch things, it is the group on these pages. Whether we spot them or not speaks nothing to the...

    Yup. ANd the most hypercritical hyper-observant segment of the market too. :) We are going to spot mistakes that 90% of the population would never see if... what's that expression about "cant even see if it is biting one in the face". I'm not surprised to see we find errors. I've seen one or...

    --------------------- In all fairness, we all know the delays involved and it was an "all hands on deck" day in the warehouse to get everything in one door and out the other. NOt to mention the frustration here at any more delays. So they were probably moving through those things like mad. It...

    oh! I think I see now. Like the material was cut just a little short, so there is a gap? Is that right? Thanks! EDIT: I was looking at the front of the unit, not the back shot. Thanks @lwien !!

    Fair point. Can those that are seeing this issue please post pix? I'm having trouble visualizing the issue (also like to see the off centre bowl) and I'm sure the pics would help other.

    Looks like there are a few issues. -- Fogged screens Don't think they are scratched. Don't think it is condensation (would have been long gone by now). Can't tell if it is perhaps a glue or a film on inner plastic. I'll await hearing more. @mmenzie -- Ick. Sounds like a mess. :( > The...

    Yup. (BTW: "Black Chrome") I have a few ideas for this myself. :) It is quite nice. Of course the burl won't have this as it is printed.

    Yup. But too many bloody Bond films with "Gold" in the title. :p Showing my knowledge is rusty, combined with the fact that I've heard Netflix is loosing some (17) of their Bond titles for streaming, I think I now know what I am doing this weekend. :)

    The burl is a printed piece. I had presumed that they were each the same, but perhaps there are multiple variants printed? Mine does NOT match the photo that DV posted earlier, either in pattern nor saturation. (DVs professional photography has the saturation WAAAAAY over-dialed). I'll keep an...

    Good catch. I think you are right. @mewash2 @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd In terms of fingernails: also I sometimes have trouble grasping edge of straw to get it out. Also issue jamming finger in to push screen-stem out...a pen works well
