Software Upgrade Done! (mostly)
The update is mostly done. There are some odds and ends that need to be finished, but it is far enough along to turn back on. Many of the old styles are no longer available. If you would like a new style, post which one, and I will see what I can do. Also, the lightbox extension is not installed yet...

Re: CAD Software -- free
It is not free, but I like ViaCAD. It is not as good as professional tools. My son, the real mechanical engineer, didn't care much for it. But for me it is intuitive enough and has few bugs. https://www.punchcad.com/punch-viacad-2d-3d-v12 You can find older versions on Amazon and eBay fairly cheaply...

Re: Can I get copy of the site?
After all of these years, the website and associated content are huge. I am not sure making a copy would be practical. I do make regular incremental backups to a server located at a different site. Also, just doing a copy of the database would also include personal information on the members, which ...

Re: Lower melting temp cadmium free solders for boilers
Thank you, guys!
I don't think he is trying to save money. I think he is trying to fix a leaky stay-bolt on a large copper boiler.
When he heated it up enough for the first bolt, another bolt started to leak.

Lower melting temp cadmium free solders for boilers
I have a question from a friend of mine.
The old construction series suggest solders with cadmium for soldering at lower temperatures.
If one wanted a lower temperature solder, for a boiler, which did not contain cadmium, what choices are out there?
Thank you,
Mike

Up and down on Sunday - 3/20/2022
I need to do a couple of small updates on Sunday (3/20). This might have the system up and down oddly.
I will do my best to minimize the disruption, but please be patient if you run into it.
Thank you!
