Hi All,
Is there any advantage of electric heated over steam heated decapping knives?
I made a steam knife from a piece of 2mm/ .09" stainless flat steel and soldered 3/8" copper pipe to it using lead free solder, I fitted a wooden handle ,it seems to work fine.
The steam provider is a 10Lb refrigerant cylinder, valve removed and a piece of flat steel over valve port to create some pressure, I drilled and fitted a 3/8 copper pipe outlet to supply the steam to the knife.
