hey i cheated, but got it done.... drunk now... will post pics of how to,on budget later on.. it cooked cray fish from the thames canal and mushroom soup.. all good thanks for help.

for mild steel I learnt the hard way, before laquering or coating with wax,WIPE YOUR FINGER PRINTS OFF FIRST.use meths, as evaporates without leaving residue.wear latex gloves... the acid in your sweat reacts with the surface of the steel and causes rust. has worked for me so far....

Still having problems? Adrian Legges triple step scarf works up to a breaking strain of 5.5 tonne if done properly.Very hard to explain without pictures, which i don't have right now.but if i get a response to this I might post some.....

I have been asked to make a cauldron for a herbalist in time for samhien (all hallows eve), and am keen to make something water/soup tight without resorting to modern welding techniques.have seen a nice one built out of dished plates riveted together (a bit like an armadillo). reckon i can work out a pattern, but wanting to know if any one has, or knows of anyone who has made one, any tips? the other option isa to dish out of sheet, but ones i've seen using this method look a little bit like woks to me.
any ideas????? Lillith
