Stop in for a cup of coffee

Matt, throw the yoke on the grill and preheat it good then finish off with your torch rig. Git R done!

heat, as mentioned bbq on 11 and leave it in there for an hour. Heat it below eylet and as i think about it,
Use threaded rod to push yoke ear out. I’d machine a rod to just fit eye to pass through both.

My buddy emailed back and is game. He's got the full size tanks and this is an excuse to get the rosebud (or in this case I'll get it for him)

TJ.
A little confused on how the threaded rod goes together with the machining a rod to pass through both eyes. Can you clarify?
