Loved the video could I ask what brazing rods and what pickling solution did you use. Ta

Pickling with citric Acid. And the brazing Rods are flux coatet Rods from the Lokal Hardware store... (Brant : Rothenberger) but i use them only for big parts and much heat. To not burn the regulary flux away
where do you get the stock material for this project?

The gears via Ebay.... all other self produced. All stock (90%) via Ebay... lokal metal stores does not sell any copper or brass Stock
Fantastic work as usual, very well done, how many annealing runs did you have to do on the boiler end cap? Cheers, Jon

Hey Jon... hope youre fine. It took 4 times annealing. This boiler is made of brass. It is harder than copper and so you have to be gentley by flanging like that! Thanks for your Visit! Nice weekend!
Great video again, thanks! Neat solution for the pressure testing too. I'm having trouble finding the valve you used with the spray bottle though, you got that from Regner too?
