I share the results of the brazing repair on the bearing bore end of the feed rod support project. I press out the graphite plug, check the fit and machine the rough outside surfaces to get ready for the second part of the brazing repair. I end with a share of the fun side1 I grew up water skiing as a fun activity in teens and twenties, then once when I was 50 and yesterday at the age near 65. I couldn’t get up on one ski, but went around the lake on two and had a blast….
“Shear Brazing 2”, is now my top Brazing skill video made by topping the last best brazing video series, “The Million Dollar Steady Rest”. I not only braze like a 3D printer I dance you on the tripod to watch a nonstop flow of brazing rod, creating a finish bore and the near factory cast shape of the missing section on the rod support end of my repair.
As soon as you know you have a cast iron project, you get into brazing mode. There are a lot of reasons the skill of brazing was one skill that was handed down to me by the first old timers I had a chance to work with in the shipyards. The strength of it, the likeness in bearing surface, the ease of machining and the noneffect it has in the base material, no crystalizing or work hardening, maybe more but these are the most important in my book.
I agree to help a customer repair an old shear of his that sustained an injury during moving.
