    Great job! Makes things a lot quicker using the RLS press fittings. Probably when you factor in the cost of oxygen,acetylene and Silphos brazing rods it probably equals out or might even be more cost effective. I see why that txv was clamped down so tight😊 You certainly did a nice neat job on this one ☝️ Thanks for the videos!

    Don't you think that's a lot better than soldering. Sorry I used to burn up half the stuff around it if we had to limit what we soldered and where would this type of device you don't have those limitations do you agree with the new technology😊

    I like your videos but you are a man of too few words. I think your audience must be made up of more non-professionals so more words about what you are doing and what the tools and parts are would be very helpful to go along with your ample video. It took me quite a few videos to figure out that the special shader valve tool allowed you to change the valve and not lose the charge. I appreciate your videos!

    If this is a scroll compressor it's not advisable to pull a pump down especially when it's going less than 30psi. Copeland advices against it because it could arc.
