Tubes will expand at different rates due to heat.

I advise rolling some 3/8 OD stainless tubing into a donut that matches the OD of your outer pipe. Then belt sand the donut until you make a C shape thru the cross section. Then weld it on.


This is what Bassett did to the ends of these pipes. It looks like tubing split in half then tiged. After looking at these and your comments. I can see why the solid weld
would be to stout the tubing like you said aids in exspansion. :cool:


KV Do you have Jespers Cell #????

Thanks
