If there's access to small piece of 1.25" copper pipe (6" or so and it's used for sewage so old piece can be used as well) and operator doesn't care about exact temperatures similar set up can be done with 35mm 110V band heater connected to AC wire to act as heater on top of that pipe and brass/copper 1/4" threaded pipe would be better to be used as delivery nozzle which can be coated in red RTV silicone (small tube is available in hardware stores or auto ones to preserve heat from dissipating from it quickly during heating process or small piece of high heat wire insulator shroud on top. The connection between pipe and cap on the bottom cab be riveted with copper/stainless rivets to avoid melting solder (best option would still be brazing/welding but that requires more tools) rivets also can be covered by silicone if any vapors escape through them. I'm in process building one for my dad that uses PID with solid state relay to control temp more precisely so it's interesting to see so many different DIY builds out there. The cap on top is best to use silicone stopper with inside cavity that way you put on heating part upside down on top of the cap, flip and tap the top for acid to drop inside. Of course this set up requires 110V either through inverter or outlet/extension.

How did it turn out ?

As far as I can tell it works. I used them several times. You have to get the whole thing pretty hot. Or the vapor will turn solid as it leaves. (Like if the steel shaft is cooler than the copper)

Hi, I am trying to make my own. Did the solder melt during use?
