[SEL] Stover "w" mixer needle

[jlb94 at juno.com]

The last needle valve I made - 
I put a piece of brazing rod in the drill press and used a file,
while the press was running, to file a point on the rod.

Then I found a 1/8" brass pipe fitting that fit the mixer and 
after soldering a brass washer to the one end of the pipe fitting,
to make a dial, soldered the rod into the other end of the pipe fitting.

It took a little measuring and fitting.

But then - - - I would think nothing of purchasing a $900 lathe
to make a $9 needle valve.

Go for it !!!
