    Hello Addy, If you're talking about snake chain, soldering is the
    only way I know.  It's not hard if you have a good fit between the
    tube and chain, and put water-based White-out on the chain above the
    tube.  A notched "V" shape from copper or stainless steel sheet
    helps too.  Put the notch over the chain and you have a heat shield.
    Email me off line if you need a better description. Judy in Kansas
