Welding or Brazing aluminium.
« on: September 28, 2015, 08:55:39 PM »
Welding or Brazing Aluminium !?.. I saw a u tube welding Ali sheet and parts, with Propane, the results looked good and easy to do. Has anyone done this or knows where to get it. Seems there is Muggyweld, Aliweld, durafix, SuperAlloy 5. But can't see anyone who sells them. And no I have not broken the car, I'm building a new "Yagi Antenea" for 80-108mhz.

Not that easy
Tig is considerably easier , with better results.
In the past CIG  has  sticks to weld aluminium

If I was 30 years younger I would lash out and buy a Tig. But these u tubes are recent and the results look satisfactory 4 what I want - some one will come out of the woodwork with some info, I'm sure.
