Total copper bobber
« on: September 20, 2014, 07:40:27 pm »
Can't find my old billet so when I was at Lowes getting some traps etc for my neighbors new sink I splurged. Yeah, I know it looks like all the rest but this
is cheap and easy. Sounds cool to.

All indirect with the billet. Only one hinge. Time for some pressure.

Thanks cowboy. It has a nice feel.
The 1" copper cap has a reducer (r) between it and the 3/4 "
copper pipe handle. It is pretty thick and heavy.
All the extra solder in, around the joints helps too.
