Are you sure?:rolleyes:

Geez I am confused, I thought brazing was different than welding.


My wire feed welder and that bottle of gas thingy, weld it all the time.

Maybe that's why I have trouble with that dang spool thingy, from time to time.


I can't believe LINCOLN ELECTRIC would sell me a dang machine, that is supposed to weld Aluminum, when I should be using my torch and brazing it.


Really ticked me off, when they made me buy those valves and that bottle thingy too!!!


BT, do you think they will give my money back?

I am pretty sure brazing is different, thats when you use oxgen, and acetelyne or propylene, or whatever gas you choose to ahha and you use brazing rod. Gotta get those temperatures above 840 degrees to do any brazing. Dont forget your flux!
Thanks for clarifying that, I thought I was loosing it for a sec there.LMAO


That Blazetoy guy usually knows his stuff, so I was worried. JK
