[QUOTE="iamagoldenoldie2, post: 339055, member: 8077"] those aluminium brazing rods are good for the beer cans not much else , its appears to have high magnesium content and from my observations it does not penetrate the aluminium to any structural effect, I even brought some muzzie weld rods from the USA ok if you can see past the yellow flare when ready to poly the brazing rod the flux causes the problem, heat dissipation thru the aluminium is hard to keep up with and remember when luminous is at the temp for brazing one sec longer and its molten, black carbon from an oxadizing flame is an indicator I have decided that the ac dc tig welder only is the toy to but don't but crap like a rossi or its twin no service in australia , but the guy from wyong offers a 5 year warranty now that s something to think about when spending around $1800 but you can weld or braze almost any of metals. if your local tafe runs welding course go for it like 20X , I've been trying to get my son to do it but the tafe is not local [/QUOTE]
