I agree with Brad2288. I used 5/16 ID silicone tubing, but other sizes should work just as well. To split the tubing, I used this method: <http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q2OzraoxRE> I "stitched" the two ends of the tubing to the false bottom with some thin gauge SS wire. But before doing all that, you might want to try some creative bending of your FB so that it makes better contact with the MT all the way around the perimeter. I followed poor experimentation practice and bent my FB for improved fit AND added the tubing at the same time, so who's to say which change fixed my stuck mash problem?
