Welding or Brazing

This is a demo of Oxy Fuel Brazing. This differs from welding in that the base metal is not melted but rather a filler metal with a lower melting poin is melted into the joint. This process is very strong when properly done. My braze joint was actually stronger than the base metal in tension.



This is a demo of Oxy Fuel Welding of Carbon Steel. The torch is fueled by Acetylene and Oxygen and a filler of ultra low carbon steel is being added to the weld pool.
