With only 4 days to go until nats,found out my heater core was stuffed.I made a temporary one out of 1/2" copper tube.Works a treat.Only rquired slight modification with a rubber mallet.Wrapped pipe around an old one litre paint tin and silver soldered pipe in various spots to hold together.Took 90 minutes to make and cost under $20.
Cheers Geoff

Bloody oath, Geoff!
That is clever!
Man, I wish I had thought of that. No doubt when I do end up having to make one, I will tell everyone it was my idea Grin Wink Grin

That would rather defeat the purpose... Wink

Good work, Geoff.  It doesn't sound like we want to be without our heaters at the Nats...

I particularly like the use of the paint-tin.  Who says you need a pipe-bending kit, eh?

Well done Geoff,
                    Not bad for a plumber gas fitter will keep your toes warm on the way up to the Nats.
 Catch you on Wednesday.
