Well did the Brazing of the parts.

This was a ROYAL PAIN IN THE ASS.
imagine soldering 5 gauge wire that cools down so fast its not funny.
Now imagine instead of the wire you have 2 aluminum plates that like to move and warp. Now imagine instead of a soldering Iron you have a blow torch thats around 900-1000 degrees. And use zinc instead of lead solder.
part of the center brace actually vaporized it got so hot
and why is stuff never as easy as the easy how to video tutorials

Ohh well the deed is done now to get grinding it down to make it look good.



Edit: ok screw this tried grinding it down with my dremel the stuff is harder than the aluminum its holding together think I'll go buy a cheap angle grinder later on, cause at the rate I'm going I'll blow my dremel out way before i'm even remotely close to done.
