AKACRider: Over the past 2 winters Ice has taken a toll on this cache. All the melting and freezing has distorted different pieces and cracked several. This gadget cache relied on tight tolerances to create seal, similar to how an engine holds cylinder pressure, to cause the cache to rise.
Since I'm Changing my hide style now for high D/T I will not be rebuilding this one, because it would likely continue to be high maintenance due to the nature of how it works.
It's had a great run.
