A single teflon gasket from Teflon sheet also makes a perfect seal. Doesn’t burning Teflon give off a deadly fume? Oliv on the Mamod forum has posted warnings about that…

As long as your Jensen boiler never runs dry, the gaskets will never burn.
I’m talking about Travis burning the strings of teflon tape off with a torch. I make the same teflon gaskets for my porthole glasses that you do as well.
The warning Oliv gave is that burning it can actually kill a person.

I suppose I'd be more concerned about letting a coated frying pan on the stove with nothing in it for too long.
I missed the part about burning away excess with a torch.
Excess teflon tape is better dealt with by the use of a sharp blade.
