The guy at Home Despot says I need to learn how to "sweat" joints but I
don't think I'm up for that.
I can't comment on how your set up will work, but sweating joints is dead
easy. Just buy one of the brushes specially made to clean the end of the
pipe and the inside of the fittings. Smear it with flux, assemble the parts,
heat it with a propane torch, and touch solder to the joint. The solder will
magically flow into the joint and seal the parts together.

As he stared at her ample bosom, he daydreamed of the dual Stromberg
carburetors in his vintage Triumph, highly functional yet pleasingly formed,
perched prominently on top of the intake manifold, aching for experienced
hands, the small knurled caps of the oil dampeners begging to be inspected and
adjusted as described in chapter seven of the shop manual.
