Runar,
Yes, that's exactly what I was talking about.

JvR, it's little things like this that bite you in the arse later.  You have to think, "if I do this now, what are the consequences later."  Everything is not always clear at the time you do it.

When you get to the point that the solder is all gone get a Q tip  with a bit of cold blue and wipe it down the seam . Any solder still on the metal won't blue and is simple to see. Better now than after you have a couple of coats if browning applies as you then have to start all over. How do I know ?????

Fascinating project!! Aside from looks, what function does the barrel ribs have?

Best regards

One function of the barrel ribs is to simply act as a joiner for the two barrels.

Thanks for taking the time to post all these tricks and details.  Greenhorns like myself know nothing of these machine techniques and we need all the exposure and help we can get !!!
