Thank you for this video :) I did start questioning my technique with soldering and this video cleared that up for me.
Super! Thanks for letting me know it helped. Cheers.
@@HouseOfHacks quick question what are three sources you can safely solder on ?
This video was very helpful for one of my upcoming projects
Awesome! Looking forward to seeing what you do. Peace.
This video was very helpful for my project
Super! Glad it helped!
Excellent, thank you , very fantastic explanation 👍
You are welcome!
Thank you sir for your teaching
You're welcome. Happy to help!
Nice overview video. I dabble in jewelry and metalsmithing, but want to learn about soldiering/brazing other metals like aluminum, stainless steel, sheet-metals. While it is referred to as soldering in jewelry, the process is technically brazing since solders used require temperatures of 700-900°C. Oxy-fuel torches are used, not typical soldering irons. Thought you might like to know. 😊
I'm tackling a DIY project using 8 ft. corrugated galvanized steel (31-gauge) panels. I need to solder the seams together and have everything ready except the right flux and soldering bars. I have a soldering iron and muriatic acid for prepping the metal. Could you please recommend the best type of flux for this job and soldering bars? Any additional tips on soldering galvanized steel would also be amazing. I am a complete beginner, so anythings helps.
Thanks
Thanks a ton!
After watching this I realized right away what I was doing wrong! Thanks for posting.
Glad I could help!
Helpful!
Super! Thanks Eric.
Great video, but HELP us crafters out there who are trying to make metal frames for fairy wings, etc (cosplay). I just can't find the help I need and don't want to tape things together. You're a good teacher:)
Thanks for watching! That's an interesting application. What gauge wire and what type of metal do you use for fairy wings? Do you have pictoral or video examples of what you're trying to make?
can you use solder to repair a galvanized/zinc watering can?
Using a torch, flux, and solder?
thanks
Yes, it should be possible but I've not done it. It may require quite a bit of flux to etch the galvanized surface enough to get it to adhere. Depending on the type of repair, silicone sealer might be an option too.
@@HouseOfHacks thank you!
@@mikeblitzen You're welcome.
Can you solder a pin hole I a air compressor tank.
Very helpful 😎
Glad to hear!
A solder torch can solder pipes on a central air conditioner and the evaporator coils on top of the furnace or air handler
Yes, that's another good application. Thanks!
Thanks!
What are three or more soucres you can safely solder on ?
Sorry, I don't understand the question.
I once soldered my broken glasses, but the arm fell right off, after a while. They did actually have a green oxidation, in parts. I guess flux is what I needed.
Wht about a bed frame?
Soldering usually isn't too strong mechanically. Brazing is somewhat better. But for a bed frame, I'd weld it. An alternative would be to use additional metal straps bolted to the frame.
Thanks brotha
which solder should be used to fill in a dent of a coin?
Might be easiest to take it to the bank and get an undented one. :-) I've soldered to coins with just regular solder I have for electronics. Needed a bit more flux to get it to stick though. I used paste solder that I have on hand for plumbing applications.
@@HouseOfHacks ok thanks for the reply!
The video starts at the end!!
Modern Surface mounted electronic components need flux before soldering. Old through hole components not so much.
Flux is important in both cases. All solders I've seen designed for electronics have flux in them already so applying flux as a separate step is generally not needed (for both surface mount and through hole uses). Solder designed for plumbing applications generally don't have flux in them and it needs to be applied prior to assembling the joint.
Dude looks like blark of blark and son😁
🤔
@@HouseOfHacks look it up it's hilarious
Thanks. I will. Cheers.
