Re: Let's see your Sight glass
Hi I used a 35mm coupler cut the coupler in half with pipe cutter which leaves a nice rounded burred edge inserted ptfe gasket inserted this glass in http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301942894884? ... EBIDX%3AIT
tested the glass in the oven at 350 it takes the heat well and very cheap and inserted a small piece of 35mm pipe inside to lock it all together had 2 runs through it so far with no problems

Good work indeed.
Did you seal the piece of pipe in or just press it in.

Re: Let's see your Sight glass
'scuse me asking, but your user name does suggest someone time served in the automotive industry,- Red Stag being the old cure-all for a leaky gasket, slap it on, screw it down and never hope to seperate those two parts again?
Don't ask how I know such things

Mash I tweeked the pipe with an expander and pressed it in hoping I don`t need to take apart for leaks Easy drinker I like your thinking but no I just drink a lot of Jim Beam Red Stag I am getting to the age where I will soon have a leaky gasket lol
