Friends,

The November-December issue of "Live Steam and Outdoor Railroading" has been on my desk for several weeks and I just now had a chance to open and read the magazine. The excellent article by Kozo Hiraoka about making copper boilers to conform to the ASME code immedialetly caught my interest.

I was very surprised to see his statement that brass is an acceptable material for various boiler fittings. There was some discussion about this topic on this list a while back, comparing brass to bronze for such uses. Would this be an appropriate time to revisit the issue of where it is appropriate to use brass in small scale model boiler work?

V/r,
