About
Brazing is ideally suited for joining dissimilar metals and is performed at relatively low temperatures. There are six fundamentals of brazing that every brazer should follow to ensure consistent and repeatable joint quality, strength, and reliability. The class will focus on "manual brazing," that is, brazing with a hand-held torch and hand-fed filler metal. Oxy/Acetylene will be used.
Questions may be directed to David Hays, metal.lead@bainbridgebarn.org
