Alohagirl Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I was pre-warned about that by peeps on this forum, and it's totally something I would do. So I always keep a bucket on the floor under my spout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Arrgh! Had this happen once with a small wax tank with about 100 lbs of wax.... luckily it came out slowly enough that it puddled and then formed a stalagmite and plugged up the spout so I "only" lost about 50 lbs. Good luck cleaning it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryinCary Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I'd like to say that that happened to me ONCE, but I think I've done that 2 or 3 times over the last 2 yrs Actually, I quit using the spigot and wish I had never had it put on there!
