How that look for girth?

Girth looks good, centerline looks off. You are going to cut it apart and add the upper and lower beads, right?
Looking swell so far! :drinks

well I'm not confortable cutting the caps off, you know how I can't draw a straight line. Think I'll run a bead of solder around it right at the point where it's curved.

2.0 mm pipe for the stack. I see it's much taller than the one in the picture, I can take care of that. :eek:hyeah

Whacha think?]

Get you one of these, you'll be glad you did.

Mine is well used, you can clamp a piece to the back to make repetitive cuts. This ain't no brass halftrack, show it who's boss. :coolio

Got one, still can't cut a straight line. Wait for the solder bead and we'll talk. :soldier

Looking good Bob.

If you take that miter box and attach it to a 1 x 4 you will find it easier to hold or clamp to the workbench.

Good advice thar Kenny! But, some how I don't think that's the problem he's having.... :drunk

I'm still scratching my head wondering how a guy who can't cut straight with a miter box is gonna run a straight weld seam, let alone two parallel. :D :tomato B)
