Out of curiosity would it a bad idea to make the "dish" in the rotating top part to avoid a scale trap? Would the moving part fail due to thinner cross section in the middle?

Might be a solution looking for a problem. We'll have to see if it's a problem first, I suspect it won't be.

Mine is kind of the same as grants, not as refined though, and have never cleaned out the scale. No problem
