While the heat baked and broiled outside

Terry and I finished making the rest of the MUCH NEEDED siphon tubes.  This is the oven where we bake the tubes, turning them into soft plastic

Terry takes them out (while still warm) and forms them in the perfect shape

Done!  We made around 50 or so, I lost count after a spell.

That evening we made several trips to the fields and added the new tubes in with the old ones, so we don’t have pack tubes from this area to the next!

YAY!
