Here are some pics of a recent job. We've got to go back and skim and make some adjustments but here's the bulk of it done.

    Another nice job. Only thing I'd do is turn that Big Mouth around so if it ever spits, it'll hit the wall rather than someone walking by.

    Nice job Johnny, EGH 105, thats a biggie.

    Funny the way they connected that old header, 3" out if the boiler reduced to 2" copper and back up to 3" again.

    I kind of had it in my head to take advantage of having threads and piping it down to the floor with copper tubing. I have to go back and skim, add a union to the feeder outlet, patch the masonry around the flue, etc.
