Sure Randy, great Idea, this may not work in the minds of some but this is what I like to do with mine.  Let the boiler cool off when you are done, clean it out the best you can, vacuuming is a bit eccentric but clean it out, then spray a liberal ( God i really dislike that word) coat of transmission oil over any exposed steel, tubes included ( if your sprayer will not do straight transmission oil then try cutting it with about 10 % heating oil or diesel fuel) , good on the steel, get a water sample by opening the drain on the bottom of the unit, let a gallon or so run and then rinse your sample bottle with the drain water, take a sample( 8 - 12 ounces and send it in to corporate, they will record your sample and let you know how much approved treatment to add.

You can also pick up a siphon blow gun from an auto parts store. Ours is about 24 inches long then has a piece of 1/4" clear vinyl hose you place in whatever liquid you want to spray. Creates quite a bit of suction, I used ours last to suck gear oil out of the nooks and crannies of the differential in our semi after the power divider grenade'ed.

Ok thank you guys much appritiated

I LIKE YOU, Sorry I could not talk you into our boiler.

All hope is not lost yet.

Proper way to discuss something though is over a hog fresh from the cooker and a endless supply of beer. Think our locations rule that out.

Figured out how much fire brick I'd need the other night with some extra for any mis cuts form excessive beer consumption. Need to price that.

Working on drawing up dimensions then I have a couple of different places I've worked with in the past to do my cnc plasma cutting and forming. Need to get a quote from them on materials and labor.

Will have to price some barn tin as well, Dad already made it clear he has plans for the stuff stored up in the rafters of the one barn.

Get it all priced out and will see where I stand with build vs buy.

Building it myself still has a big draw though.

There certainly is a good feeling that goes with building it yourself, I have some Ideas that I would be happy to share with you offline, wouldn't want to share them here, next thing you know I'd be out of business!

I have not bought yet, but before I started cruising this form, I did not know anything about P&M, hardly knew they existed.  I am in the central midwest and there are none down here.  Now, after much reading on many brands, they are in my top 2 or three of what I will purchase this summer.  Good stuff guys.  I really appreciate all the info on here.
