nakomaru's video: The PIMP Precision Insulated Magma Pump and The Ceramifier v1 Oxygen Not Included

@The PIMP (Precision Insulated Magma Pump) and The Ceramifier v1 (Oxygen Not Included)
I recently became inspired to optimize magma delivery and heat exchangers thanks to posts and questions from HeatEngine and Lilscratchy's forum threads. I believe this is novel, but I don't follow sources outside of the ONI forums. The most similar devices I know of are from JohnFrancis and Lifegrow, but they are not quite as precise and one isn't quite insulated. Basically, you can put a door somewhere within the middle of a sideways lava flow to push out small bits of magma at a time. I demonstrate a use of this by heating clay into ceramic and efficiently using the heat from both. With certain settings, you can process about 2T of clay, 1T of ceramic and 350kg of magma per cycle. These can be about doubled by increasing the temperature of the hot plate. Details in the video. I forgot to cover that there is also a 1s-on, 4s-off timer hooked to a conveyer shutoff which limits the rate of the ceramic/rock that can be sent through the exchanger. This isn't really needed and may need to be tweaked during construction, but I added it to space out the heat delivery. Also, there are liquid/gas/automation bridges at various locations to shunt heat in the exchanger and boiler. Of course kilns+hatches are more efficient, but nowhere near as cool.
