I think you can buy annular (not angular) cutters with Weldon shanks from Vevor as well. The regular drill chuck and its threaded Weldon adapter are simply to help when you have a requirement and the drill bit but not the Weldon shank cutter. I suspect you will find that you have some play in between the Weldon to chuck adapter which is taken up by the set screws. Perhaps you can adjust the set screws (trial and error method) to take some of that out. The other thing is you might want to use a hole punch to set spot where you want it before starting to drill. Like you saw, the runout doesn't normally impact the hole drilled once it is started - at least less than the runout actually is. Thanks for posting this video. It allowed us to look it over before buying one. We will. It would be handy in our fab shop and the price is crazy low for the utility. Thanks again!

I am by no means an expert in oxyacetylene processes but the gas flame in the vise repair sequence appeared to me to be carburizing rather than neutral. Once again since I am no expert I couldn’t speculate whether introducing more carbon into the surface might have any effect but just wanted to throw that out there in case someone might weigh in. I have a little experience with TIG brazing using Silicon Bronze but have no idea if that method is applicable to cast iron. Thanks for posting your experience.

I taught myself cast iron bronze brazing with the exact same lincoln portable torch kit you have. Never had any experience before diving in. SUPER HELPFUL TIP - Get the flux coated bronze filler rod in 3/32” … If you try and use 1/8” on a small part you’re going to struggle, only time I’ve ever found myself “needing” an 1/8” over a 3/32” was for a LARGE VISE crack which required the crack to be ground down for 4” and ran 6” across (part weighed 70+lbs). For almost all bracket repair or common cast iron part repairs weighing under 20lbs , the 3/32” rod will be perfect. The ease of use is night and day between heating & dipping your rods in flux… the ease and results you’ll see will be night and day just like when you try brazing with Harris Safety Silv 45 or 56. For brand I would go Hotmax or Lincoln, I tried US Forge but for some reason I had more trouble with that brand(batch?). Hobart, Forney, Harris would probably be fine too but since I can only speak from experience …which is I loved the HotMax 36” rods they made the process as user friendly as I could ever have hoped.

Brass or bronze has more UTS than the cast iron does. You just have to get the filler to wet out the parent material. That's what flux does, and why silver content is important.

Good question, honestly I don't know that tig would have been preferred for this particular repair. Given its small size and the base material being cast iron, I think there's a strong argument for brazing even if tig is available? But, I'm not the expert lol, and I also don't have tig either way.

Pro-hobbyist tip, run a slightly hotter flame than you think you need. Then, hold the tip slightly farther away to spread the heated area out a little farther. This helps prevent hotter than needed spots and a more even heat to the part, which in turn reduces the cracking probability when it cools. It also helps the filler material flow out better as more of the area is evenly heated.

One tip I received many years ago that helped me wrap my head around this type of brazing is to remember the filler material ( brazing rod aka bronze) goes to the heat. Meaning it will always try to go to the hottest point. Flux will help it get there faster. That, and also understanding that the approach angle is what I try to focus on when brazing. I do ALOT of brazing with 45 and bronze is what I use the majority of the time. But your video was still very informative and entertaining. 😊

Thanks very much. That's a really great tip btw. It is a little weird trying to wrap your head around how that works, but it 100% fits with what I've experienced while practicing. One of my big issues was that I was trying to "heat the bronze" directly instead of allowing the job to heat up and then letting the bronze flow to that heat. Makes perfect sense when thinking about struggling to get the bronze to go to the right place.

Brazing is an art, not that I have any skill with it, I don't, but it takes practice and once it comes together it just works. My 8th grade shop teacher was a brazing Jedi. Why?

Thank you for doing this video. I have a brand new oxy/acet torch setup which I had purchased for the sole purchase of learning how to braze. I have hesitated trying because I really didn't know where to start. I now have some beginning ideas. So, here is my situation. I have a '62 Impala that has some rust holes in parts that are not available in the aftermarket. They are also very complex as far as bends and curves and would be very difficult to reproduce. Since this is in sheet metal which is already thin from the rusting, it appears I should try the silver/bronze vs. the straight bronze because of its ability to flow at a lower temp. I'd be interested in your thoughts since you just brazed razor blades.
@hersch_tool
@hersch_tool 8 күн бұрын
You're very welcome, and thank you very much for watching. And that's a really great question. Remember, I'm no expert so take this with a grain of salt, but my initial thought is to say yes, give the silver brazing a try. That said, you also might pick an inconspicuous spot and experiment with both before committing fully. Either way you go, just make sure that you heat the part enough for the filler to bond. With silver brazing, you can melt the filler before you get the base up to temp if you're not careful and it won't stick well. So, whether you go with bronze or silver, you'll want to make sure that the base metal is glowing red before flowing the filler. Also, you can try getting some sheet metal of the same size and cutting it as backer for the holes. It's really difficult to build up and fill holes without some kind of backer, especially for beginners like us. This also give you the benefit of being able to concentrate the heat onto the backer while allowing the backer to help spread that heat to the part. It's very easy to blow a hole through sheet metal with oxy acetylene, so that should be helpful in reducing the pucker factor lol. Also you'd be getting some practice on the back side of the part while you're brazing the backer material in place. Good luck, and thank you for watching!

Check your lathe's spindle ID. I found that on my 12x24 Taiwanese lathe that there was a galvanized pipe size that fit perfectly and was very easy to thread. Depending to the style of chuck mount you have, you need to make sure you have a way to eject the collet adapter. On the lathe shown with cam-locks a couple of threaded screw holes through the face of the adapter so a soft nosed screw may be pushed against the face of the spindle and dislodge the adapter. My lathe has a screw mount spindle, so I have an aluminum thread protector that when unscrewed, ejects the adapter.
