Hello

I need to add he bung to my down pipe. I know it needs to be a few inches down. How do people do it? Drill a hole so it's a neat fit and weld around it or try tap it in so it screws? Any close up piccies of the bung welded?

Thanks

Rob

drill a hole big enough for the bung to drop into, fit it so its half in the pipe and half out then weld round it :)
