I thread and soft solder the barrels into the mono-bloc. With the barrels so fitted, if a barrel did "come adrift" I feel that would be the very least of your problems at that precise moment.Some one please correct me if I am wrong here, but as far as I am aware, all mono-blocs are low temp soldered. I have not seen any done any other way.
If a single piece mono-bloc were machined, could ports be machined longitudinally to allow the hi temp solder to flow in a similar way that you did by laying the solder along the rib?
Then the rib could be applied over the ports (thus hiding them) with low temp solder.
Then again, that would be a lot of machine work when a shoe lump is strong enough for a .500NE!
