Forgot the 2" t

Looks like just a flange, straight piece, 90 degree elbow and bushing.

Lol. Also, make sure and use a new grinding wheel or one that has only been used on stainless. You probably already know this but just a friendly reminder.

Just don't grind through the thin kettle wall.:)

Your going to need an angle grinder to get that sugaring off. That's pretty bad. Do you have a grinder?

The customer is providing the material but I will check them out on future builds. Thanks!

Thanks bad. You've got some work to do! Btw, I picked up a barbed fitting like you suggested yesterday and am going to use that purge method if/when I do another keggle. Thanks for the idea! On another note, shipping to California from st.louis for the keggle was $100. Ouch! Just a idea...

I would like to see a pic to please.

Next up: Brutus 10 build. I'm excited!

Wanted to add one thing to prospective welded keggle buyers. Make sure they are leak tested before picking them up. I leak tested this one and found a small leak on the weld. You can see the void in the first pic at the two o'clock position and the repair that was made in the second pic...

Sold to rich g! Thanks rich.

Thanks!

Cool. Thanks. Did you thread the fitting all the way in? Did you buy the fitting as is or make one up?

I wonder if I just threaded the purge nipple in 1/2 - 1 turn and kept it away from the heat affected zone if it would be ok? One way to find out I guess.:)

My only concern is the threads getting too hot and not being able to get the purge nipple back out. Have you used this purge method before?

Thank you for the idea! I will for sure try it as argon is not cheap.

Thank you for the kind words drew! Hope you are enjoying your keggle. You were a pleasure to do business with as well!

Local welding/gas supply store? Air gas, praxair, cee Kay, etc.

Also, I used my lighter to make sure argon was present. Had the flow meter set at 10 cfm then dropped it to 5 cfm after I ensured argon was flowing to the backside.
