does anyone on the forum do brazing? I need to have someone with a small tipped acetylene torch put some silver solder around one of the fittings on my system. Either that or have a shop do it. Any idears?

Did you use teflon tape or the teflon paste?  I used teflon paste on my set up and no leaks at the joints.  I use teflon tape on my garage set up.

tape and we tried it twice. Then we broke the first gauge, bought another and this one leaks also!
