To put pictures on forum threads you need to create an album, put the picture(s) in the album and use the Insert Image from Album button (little camera icon above) to link it (them) to the forum post. Slightly long winded but it does mean the pictures are separate from the forum post so you can easily re-use them if need be in other threads. Probably got something to do with handling re-sizing to fit too.

Use the Albums link in the green bar at the very to of the page to make your album.

As ever first time through is a PIA but after the third one you wonder what all the fuss was!

Hi all

I've created an album but for some reason the pictures are side ways.

Anyway there on the sheet.

I've been sent a picture of what the owner thinks is what the burner looked like.

There are two pins inside and a hole in the base.

Do you think this machine is home made

Thank you for all your help.

As it is scratch built I know have a meths burner to make of my own design.

That's a common problem. The easiest fix is to open your picture in something like Photoshop or GIMP, rotate it to the correct orientation and save it before uploading it to your album.

If you're interested there is a good explanation of what's happening here:

Withe the height and width of the opening you could make a super burner as described in this thread
