Wow, did not know you COULD braze it. I've seen it TIGed and MIGed and even that's tricky with good equipment. It sucks the heat away from the weld so quickly, it's hard to get it hot enough. OTH, be

It appears legit. And as Randal pointed out, they don't appear to be trying to scam any info from anyone. If there have been "copycat" versions of it that are scams, well... neither a new scheme nor

Sounds like minerals in the water, not milk. You could try telling him milk is a colloidal suspension of cow fat in cow sweat and see if that dissuades him. Or that it's just kinda gross to consume a

FWIW, DESA went out of business a couple years ago. Not sure who makes Mr. Heater (the same guys that make Mr. Plow?) Their quality was spotty in my experience, but they did have decent parts and sup
