Dont JB weld it. Silver solder is going to be a far better way IMHO. What I would do if I was going to solder it would be tack all the parts together with a tig torch and then solder the parts. The solder will wick between the parts.
I love threads like this. They make me happy that I'm learning welding and machining. And that stuff about aluma-steel blows my mind, but its probably just another way of tig-brazing, like you'd do with silicon-bronze.
Why wouldn't you want to TIG this bad boy together? use 1/16th rod at low amps, the welds would hold stronger than safety silv ever would...
Because he does not have a tig welder or any experience tig welding.
Agreed, TIG is the way to go (thats what I did for mine)
how about explosion welding?
Very nice! How'd you do it? Torch and braze rod? Mine never looks that purdy!!
Nice. It looks like they are just using a gas fluxxer. Pretty nice. As far as strength goes, brazing is still listed as an approved method for airframe construction by the faa.silicon bronze brazing is how my Ariel Atom frame is put together
