I built another supercritical CO2 chamber for extraction and drying. This time, I wanted a chamber that was easier to open and close, and could be expanded to larger volumes with the same closure system. The chamber is built from 2" OD .25" wall stainless steel, and I welded a plug into one end and a ring with O-ring gland onto the other.
