You can braze aluminium at lower temperatures than TIG, but it still needs a blowtorch

Aware of that .I have the ability but not the facility.I,m a time served tin basher but have been out the game for a long time.As time & methods have moved on just wonted opinions of those who have experience with modern technology & methods .In the 1970,s I was welding 16 swg ally using oxy/acetylene.That took a lot of practice, don’t think the eyes would be up to it now,as anyone who mastered the skill will know not a lot of time feeding the rod once the ally was pooling.
