Default RE: My 1`st Scratch Built Airboat,,EVER !!


ORIGINAL: crispyspa

[&:] SoOoOoooooo...you're going to leave us hanging between the brazing and annealing?
.Yeah, you got it,still have more Brazing to do yet ..SoOoOoooooo,,,,,,,,,,Y`all come Back Now,Ya Here!! LOL

So to get this right...when you braze aluminum, it gets weaker/softer. somehow you need to harden the material back up. Is it done much the same way as steel hardening? Get it red hot, run it through a hot salt bath then cool quickly?
..Yep Yep.Something Like that.Plus,just like steel ,there`s more than one way to get the desired results,depending on what the Desired Results are..I`m going to only describe the Simplest way, to do it in your House, and for what I need to do

I would really enjoy a video of how the whole process is done, GET A THIRD HAND! LOL
Well, I`ll see ,what I can do about that.It Won`t be for a while though..Maybe with a Tri-pod for my Camera, and a day of editing and uploading I can get it done..
