FINALLY got my keg and copper/stainless bits back today from the engineering shop.
Can't really complain though it didn't cost me much, a couple of bots of corn whiskey and $50 cash to put it together.
Ended up getting another 2 inch ferrule welded on top of the existing keg top so I can easily get to the triclover clamp. Theres also a little lip inside at the join that might be good for a gin basket to sit in easily.
Also realised I needed a grounding point for the wiring and unlike the skirt on the base of the 50 litre kegs the 18 gallon ones seem to be keg all the way to the bottom. So I got a small ss tab welded between the 25mm sockets to screw the earth wires to.
Tried the junction box setup, seems to look ok, will silicon mastic (high temp rated) it onto the keg after I clean up the keg a bit.
Now to the plumber for some soldering still bits and sparkie mate to check the wiring..
