Thursday morning 3:00 A.M, I was making a pot of coffee as usual , I noticed a little water on the counter. after turning the maker on, I said to myself your getting sloppy Oldman!, I wiped it up and went on about whatever, later I was pouring my coffee and noticed coffee on the counter , Jeez Oldman your losing it!
Well the next morning as I was washing the pot I noticed a little crack , oh well off to Wally World and buy a new pot, none available so I bought a new maker.

The next problem how to light the damn thing without a lot of work three shots later I got this, using my R1C1 macro setup with one head to the right of the pot.

This morning I was getting ready to chuck the old pot into the trash can and then I saw this

Must be catchy. I have been boiling water to poor thru the filter of my drip pot that I purchased 8 years ago for $14.99 at Wallmart about a week now. Had some water a couple of times but not to bad. Like you thinking i missed a little. Then it just let go. I'll drive 10 miles to try & get an Osprey diving but wont drive 2 miles to the Target store. Only 2 left turns. One out my driveway & one into the Target parking lot.

FYI:
Walmart used to sell replacement pots. They had several models that could be adapted to fit most coffee machine brands. I bought one about 15 years ago, and it is still going strong. Note that the pot was about $16. A new machine was about $20.
