I understand, tig, not as far as i know, melting point of each is to far apart. i think i will look into a 2 tapered washers,,that will fit a 1/2'' brass nipple...and 2 nuts connect to the nipple on each side.

May 5, 2015 #11 yes it would, but it would cost about 300 bucks for a pot as big as a 5 gallon bucket just to hold water. my boiler is SS not copper Last edited: May 6, 2015
