Seeing that it was your first one we'll let it go this time, but next time I want that pig-tail turned 90°. I know it is not a mercury switch but it is a good habit

gas flue

Could be the picture , but that gas flue looks like its running fairly level you might want to go back and adjust it so it pitches up to the chimney from the water heater

Steamhead

Gary, that steam job looks great

but you really do have to watch those pigtails when using mercury-switch Vaporstats and Pressuretrols. If they flex the wrong way they will affect the switch action.

Otherwise- nice job! Watch out, Mad Dog- you've got some serious competition now! ;-)

Gary, pigtails move

They uncoil a little when they get hot. Since the mercury bulb needs a level reference that doesn't move, the pigtail should be at right angles to the mercury bulb travel direction.

....like they already said.

Nice job, buddy. How do the kids like school, here?
