It looks so pretty. I like the oxidized texture

A true Jack of All Trades!

[@heyimamaker]

It's like really really hot glue 😁

Nice metal work!

[@heyimamaker]

Thanks! It's fun!

[@AndyCPugh]

Good job.

[@heyimamaker]

Thanks for watching Andy!

[@MakerMaddox]

Ok ok! Now metal! Let's gooooo!

[@heyimamaker]

What else should I make with Metal?

[@MakerMaddox]

@@heyimamaker oooo! What about little risers/stands for planters?! But maybe you don't need more planter stuff. I keep thinking of something that has beautifully finished mahogany but incorporating rougher looking/industrial feeling metal for contrast.

[@heyimamaker]

@@MakerMaddox Hummmmmm

[@JustMightDIY]

This was really interesting to watch - we don't see a lot of metal working these days. Nice job!

[@heyimamaker]

Glad you enjoyed it! I really like working with metal but I don't have many tools so simple things like this are about all I can do 😅

[@MarkMcCluney]

I've never done any brazing but I do like that gold leaf look it leaves! But what the heck is brazing? I know it's not really welding exactly, but surely it's more than just fancy soldering? I mean, what is that golden metal? Brass? Bronze? Braze? I'm off to bed now and this is going to keep me awake all night... Thanks mate, nice wee vid.

[@JennaMaBob]

I might be wrong but I think it's Nickle

[@heyimamaker]

Hey Mark, I think it's Bronze or potentially Brass. These are old rods from my grandfather so I really don't know 😆 But I like how quiet it is, almost the metal working tool equivalent of woodworking with hand tools.

Nice work! You gotta have a pot in the shop for all of the bits and bobs! I've heard of brazing before but never actually seen it done, interesting stuff! Great video too, I really liked the sound of the gas torch with the feint tap, tap, tap of the rod, very relaxing! Thanks for sharing! 👍

[@heyimamaker]

Thanks so much! It isn't as fancy as welding but I also don't have a welder 😂

[@tfturning]

@@heyimamaker ​Ah, that'll hinder you a bit for sure lol. Pfft, welding shmelding 😂

[@TheWoodYogi]

I really enjoyed this Adam 😊 I haven't done any brazing for years and now I have the urge again 😁 ॐ

[@heyimamaker]

You should! It's very peaceful!
