I do not see how to reconcile Kula's "distributor cone" with the small container on a wire.Archie wrote: ↑Thu Mar 26, 2026 2:03 pm Now, Kula certainly does say it was poured from the top.
Here is Germar's drawing of this "distributor cone."The content of a Zyklon can was poured from above in [on] the distributor cone, which allowed for an equal distribution of the Zyklon to all four sides of the column. After the evaporation of the gas, the entire central column was extracted and the evaporated [depleted] silica [carrier] removed.
The cone is at the top and sends the pellets off to the sides. The pellets would fall between the gap in the mesh layers. The problem of the getting the pellets into the small inner container has already been raised. But there is another problem: how do you pull the small container out with a wire if the top of the column is blocked by the distributor cone?
