Kingpin Gemini Pot, black anodization + mapp gas = toxic fume
 

Kingpin,

We've been benching with the gemini pot...we love it. till we were burning the anodization into some sort of fume.

If you're torching and feeling your eyes burn...toxic fumes are already airborne. better wear some goggles and some micro dust mask.

Another indication before the physical pain is perceived...the blue flame from your torch turns into green.

We're not sure if compressed air + anodization , caused de-anodization.

We had plenty of ice, after benching several hours. This prompted drilling into the ice and air blasting it with compressed air.

Can we get non anodized alu body? I think this is a legit health concern.

OCA FTW

Will the old aluminum dice extension work ???

Never had one so I am not sure how much the new one was revised


Plus any Local fab shop should be able to hook you up provided with a good drawing

the extension should work...

im not sure what you're recommending though..hehehhe

Honda, is this something you've personally brought up at Kingpin Forums or thru e-mail/pm with Vince already?
