Default RE: Built an impeller(Brass) :)

eyekandy, well as I said this was a practice run. Being in the beginning I had no idea what I was doing, I didnt expect success on the first try. didnt come out smooth, mainly imo because there was too much solder which doesnt bend. For some reason I forgot the old days of doing plumbing and that I couldnt possibly do this with a soldering iron. So I spent probably an hour doing that till I brought out the torch. Also my blades arent long enough. That probably the toughest part, is cutting out a proper blade, but after sitting in bed thinking about it, I think I know what to do.
Hopefully today, I'll try another one, but unfortunately I sprained my wrist or something as typing this is killing me.
