==Overview==
(To do) [[File:EBK Bulldog Overview.jpg|none|200px|thumb|400px|Overview of the Essentric Beekeeper Bulldog]]
[[File:EBK Bulldog Closeup.jpg|none|thumb|400px|The bore-through compression fitting allows the racking wand to pass completely through the fitting making the depth adjustable to prevent sediment transfer.]]

[[File:EBK Bulldog Underside.jpg|none|thumb|400px|An inside view shows the simple "works" within the triclover fitting, liquid inside the wand and gas outside the wand. The standard stainless steel compression rings/sleeves in the bore-through compression fitting have been replaced with silicone o-rings which seal with minimal tightening on the nut and never attach to the tubing permanently. These replacement o-rings allow the racking wand to slide up and down through the compression fitting while maintaining the seal.]]
