Re: Keg Boiler Rocking

I was thinking it could find a new home as a filler neck on the next one.

Re: COPPER, BRASS AND STAINLESS!

Nice job PFShine! At least your diy part saved you a bundle of $. Pretty clever! That's a real nice looking ez-flange you have fabricated as well.

Re: COPPER, BRASS AND STAINLESS!

I found these 4" angle grinder polishing disks from a local hardware shop here in Missouri, that make it a breeze to shine anything. I will post a pic of them tommorow. It's is more of a pain to cut the rim off them to be honest. And,,,,, I'm very excited to see what everyone's been posting and...

Re: COPPER, BRASS AND STAINLESS!

There is just something about it that draws me in. From the time I soldered my first joint 5 years ago, I was hooked. I have learned to never throw away a single scrap, chunk, piece or shaving of these precious alloys. I would love it if you all would post any random pic of your metal creations here...

Re: Proper introduction.

Thanks for the posts men. As with all of my hobbys, I take it to the extreme and spend way to much $$ according to my loved ones. And it may be true I tend to get side tracked every once in a while :sarcasm: when I'm in my one car garge here in middle American Missouri.
