Plumbing / Re: Another water treatment question

« on: May 09, 2011, 05:29:49 PM »

i'm not the sharpest tac in the box but my thinking on it is if you have any iron in your system you will contaminate your stainless. regardless of what type of stainless steel it is. so you are defeating the purpose of stainless steel. so i would treat the water. but thats just my thought on it.

Home Made / Re: Gasification wood boiler build

first let me say looks like A-1 usa work to me. did you keep records of all material bought so you know the total cost of the unit. just wondering how much you save by building your own. less the consumables like gas and air, welding wire etc. . on welding, did you weld both sides of everything or seal one side and stitch the other?? did you use a 80 grade welding wire or a 70 series wire? not sure with that much heat exposure. i would like to build one myself, but i don't know if i have the smarts. very capable of the welding and burning, but the planning is the tough part for me. are you selling a blue print to follow with detailed drawing? the pics you have are great but to me they would be hard to follow. the brain doesn't work as it should so i need pics with numbers. please let me know if something is available. one thing about building your own you get to know how the system works, at least i hope anyway. i can see theres a lot of questions so i'll stop for now.
