That sounds like I am better off paying some one to weld at a local shop
then.
I read this article in SA about how this guy soldered his cable connections
together with lead/tin solder like they did in the old days, and started
looking into the possibility of using flux and silver solder to braze
Fred, after reading Kent's site that I sent you, sounds like brazing aluminum
is not reliable according to Kent. Sounds easy enough if one follows the
directions and might require the correct flux. I know, nothing is as easy as it
sounds but if you have ever watched Kent weld, it sure looks vari
That would have been TIG welding maybe, I don't have one of those anymore.

Look at Kent Whites site below. I have sat in some of his forums at Oshkosh in
years past. He showed where all the old world war 2 airplane fuel tanks were
gas welded. I do not remember if they were welded, brazed, or a combination of
the two, but this guy will know for sure.

Can anyone tell me if brazing and aluminum tank is acceptable as welding it?
I have my fears about welding aluminum myself but know that I can braze it
easily enough with silver bearing braze compound.
Thanks.
