Hi don't know how many builders are steaming there fodens yet but any that are how are you getting on with seeing your water level as mine is definitely tricky to see the level, used to have a foster with glass tube which was a lot easier to read. Question

Much easier if you have water treatment in Laughing I haven't steamed the foden but my full size is the same.

Dear Dave ,
Did you resolve your dillema?
Have just filled boiler for the first time and it is a bit difficult to see the water. I was wondering whether to paint the back of the inner gauge white to give more clarity.
