Stainless fillet question
This is kinda OT… The boiler on my Breville DB is basically cracked - it has grown just slightly “porous” near a roll in the metal, and it leaks. Possibly the stupidest failure I’ve ever seen in an espresso machine, compounded by the fact that a) I love this machine and b) Breville doesn’t sell spare parts.
I’ve concluded the thing to do is to lay a fat fillet right over the affected section. It’s too thin and weirdly shaped to weld effectively (and I can’t weld). But it’s thicker than a bike tube, so I think laying a fillet on it shouldn’t be too hard.
Can anyone recommend a product to use? (Or alternative approach?) I need something that doesn’t require more heat than propane (or MAPP) can provide, and which doesn’t contain lead, nickel, cadmium, etc. And the machine is such a nightmare to dissemble and reassemble that I need it to work the first time, even with my minimal skills… 😜
