Default Press fit clearance for brass into PVC?

Heat the PVC to about 212 deg, in boiling water. knurl the brass part, the
press them together, should hold tight. but I suggest that what ever you

do,
make some samples first. If heated you might be able to get away without
machining the PVC, save time and money.

Thanks Gary - I'll try it. Heating the pvc in boiling water sounds like a
nice simple approach.
cheers
