New keg build with some pictures.
I wanted to use the original 2" and add a 6" . It just wasnt in the cards, even with my bad eyes I could see it was not going to work . I went inside and ordered a 3" ferrel and cap. This will be a fill port if needed. It will be a few days before I get the parts.

1137 show new keg with 6" ring sitting on top. It sits great there. If you move it off to the side , your going to have a huge time with solder as it will not sit tight against the surface.
