I'm a steamfitter in NYC. Only suggestion I have after soldering is not to put the wet rag on too quickly because you risk cooling the joint too quickly and causing the solder joint to Crack or seperate and potentially having a leak in the near future. Wrap the wet rag around valves and dope/tape joints that are too close. Also if you use a dry rag about 1-2 mins after the joints are done it will clean the joint and then you won't need to use the scotch Brite after. The more Flux that gets caught on the rag the better it will clean. Keep up the clean copper work looks great.

Plumber from Texas here... ive heard that advice all the time but ive been cooling down my fittings with a damp rag for 19 years now and never once has that caused an issue... only time ive had a pisser is once or twice and both because i didnt clean my pipe properly or a defect in the fitting

I’m a retired Plumber in Australia and in relation to cooling the job following soldering. A bloke I worked with cooled the copper and brass flanges on a job and every brass flange cracked causing leaks. It was a 3” copper fire service, only difference was here in Aus we silver solder (braze) a job of that size. Very rarely do you see what we call “soft soldered” joints here and it’s prohibited on natural gas pipe work. Great videos mate 👍😊
@daddy1571 Жыл бұрын
Nice work! One thing though....Heat the pipe before heating the fitting for better penetration. Thermal expansion happens and you heat the fitting more evenly. When it's heated from the inside(heating the pipe first) and then on the outside of the fitting the solder draws in further following the heat and flux. I used to think I was good but I went to the Michigan Copper Institute for a medical gas seminar and learned a bunch of copper knowledge! You're the best channel 100% Shqip!

We dug the floor down a bit and rolled the unt in on 1/2 " steel plate and 1/2 black iron pipe. Then pulled it up on a ramp into the rest of the building on the existing floor.

Make it a habit to never shit on yourself. Humility is great, but dont cross the thin line into self limiting beliefs because the reality and truth of the matter is that you can and will do anything you believe you can and will do. Simple as that. If you know what day trading is, you may know that 90% of traders lose 90% of their account within 90 days and even more than that fail and never make it, and after 10 years of trying and failing, after losing close to $40K, and having multiple moments of “im just not cut out for this”, I finally did it… I am now a consistently profitable day trader, and this is all while the entirety of society and family told me it is gambling, made fun of me, told me I’m ridiculous and should just do something else with my time… now when the conversation at the dinner table switches to me, everyone is suddenly excited and smiling while asking me how I am doing, what success I have gotten, and coming to me every week to ask me whether they should buy or sell X asset on the market for Y price… and guess what… most of my success ultimately relied on one thing: my belief that I was not only capable of becoming what I wanted but knowing that I ultimately would achieve it no matter how hard I had to try or how long it took, and so on. Point being, believe in yourself, and the universe will believe in you, just don’t expect it to tell you that until after you’re successful because on the contrary, naysayers and everyone around will always supposedly know better which isn’t the case at all.

Isnt there a miter box jig you could use for the insulating cuts? Man its hard to come by 2” copper for my hobby needs, most industrial needs here seem to use 1 1/2”. 2 inch is the minimum, 3 or 4 would be even better by for building still towers
