System and method for building ornamental flame displays
A burner system includes a plurality of burners each including a nipple that is brass and a jet that is brass. The nipple in at least some of the burners has a first end that is open and a second end that is closed. The nipple has a side wall between the first end and the second end. The side wall defines a bore that extends through the first end to the second end. The first end, second end, and side wall of the nipple are of integral, one piece, construction free of joints. The nipple hole extending through the side wall and the jet is engaged with the hole.
1. A burner system comprising:
a connector;
at least two burners directly connected to the connector;
each of the at least two burners including a nipple that is brass and a jet that is brass;

the nipple has a first end that is threaded and a second end that is closed, the first end threadedly engaged directly with the connector;
the nipple has a side wall between the first end and the second end, the side wall defining a bore, the bore extends through the first end to the second end;
the first end, second end, and side wall of the nipple are of integral, one piece, construction free of joints;
the nipple has a threaded hole extending through the side wall of the nipple to the bore; and
the jet has a threaded end threadedly engaged with the threaded hole.
2. The burner system as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the connector has a gas inlet, a first gas outlet, and a second gas outlet, a first one of the at least two burners being directly connected to the first gas outlet and a second one of the at least two burners being directly connected to the second gas outlet.
3. The burner system as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the connector has a third gas outlet and a third one of the at least two of the burners is directly connected to the third gas outlet.
4. The burner system as set forth in claim 3 , wherein the first one, second one, and third one of the burners extend radially from the connector.
5. The burner system as set forth in claim 3 , wherein the first gas outlet, the second gas outlet, and the third gas outlet are threaded;
the threaded end of the nipple of the first one of the burners being threadedly engaged directly with the first gas outlet;
the threaded end of the nipple of the second one of the burners being threadedly engaged directly with the second gas outlet; and
the threaded end of the nipple of the third one of the burners being threadedly engaged directly with the first gas outlet.
6. The burner system as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the gas inlet is vertical and the first gas outlet and the second gas outlet are horizontal.
7. The burner system as set forth in claim 1 , wherein, in the at least two of the burners, the nipple has a threaded end threadedly engaged directly with threaded gas outlets in the connector.
8. The burner system as set forth in claim 1 , wherein one of the at least two of the burners includes more than one of the jets.
9. The burner system as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the hole in the nipple is threaded and the first end of the jet is threaded and threadedly engaged with the hole.
10. A burner system comprising:
a connector;
a plurality of burners directly connected to the connector, the plurality of burners including a first burner, a second burner, and a third burner;
each of the plurality of burners including a nipple that is brass and a jet that is brass;
in each of the plurality of burners:
the nipple has a first end that is threaded and a second end that is closed, the first end threadedly engaged directly with the connector;
the nipple has a side wall between the first end and the second end, the side wall defining a bore, the bore extends through the first end to the second end;
the first end, second end, and side wall of the nipple are of integral, one piece, construction free of joints;
the nipple has a threaded hole extending through the side wall of the nipple to the bore; and
the jet has a threaded end threadedly engaged with the threaded hole.
11. The burner system as set forth in claim 10 , wherein the connector has a gas inlet a plurality of gas outlets, the gas outlets being threaded and the first end of the nipple of each burner being threadedly engaged directly with one of the gas outlets.
12. The burner system as set forth in claim 11 , wherein the plurality of burners are spaced from each other and extend radially from the connector.
13. The burner system as set forth in claim 12 , wherein the nipples are cantilevered from the connector.
14. The burner system as set forth in claim 10 , wherein the plurality of burners are spaced from each other and extend radially from the connector.
15. The burner system as set forth in claim 10 , wherein the nipples are cantilevered from the connector.
16. The burner as set forth in claim 10 , wherein the nipples are elongated from the connector.
17. The burner as set forth in claim 10 , wherein the nipples are supported entirely by the connector.
