    Friends, remember to use a vent hood or use a respirator mask. It's not a good idea to breathe too much burnt flux. I used to solder in a poorly ventilated area and got very painful pleurisy for several days (turns out I'm sensitive). And remember to wash your hands if using solder containing lead.

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  6 ปีที่แล้ว +62

      GOOD POINTS, sir! I should have included a segment in the video about respirators. In all of the soldering videos I've seen, I've never seen anyone using a mask, but I did end up getting a mask for when I'm in the shop soldering for long periods at a time. I edited my description to include links to the mask and cartridges I use.

    • @ValseInstrumentalist

First time , hearing you …searched up best way to solder metal and aluminum because my aluminum head gasket and my metal valves on my compressor broke. and your video was the first one to show up. And I was hooked as soon as I heard your voice… What a beautiful soul you are, it is so pleasurable to sit down and listen to you explain in detail how you go about soldering, that short video I learned something you that I will be using and I already subscribed before the video was over. Once again thank you very much… Let me say this… i’m Sure that’s many subscribers that you have I’m not necessarily interested in learning how to solder, but more for listening to your soothing beautiful voice that you have… Lol God bless you.

    Hi,
    Just subscribed!
    I love doing metal art and have done many,many pieces out of copper,brass and steel.
    When I retired I started making sterling silver jewelry and even cutting my own semi -precious stones to set.
    As time went on my eyes started to fail but I didn't want to stop doing something I love to do,,,work with metal.
    I searched to find someone I could learn from to make pieces that were not as "intricate" as making jewelry settings and found exactly what I was looking for!A man named George Goehl!
    He has tons of free videos on TH-cam and also instructional CD's that you can buy very cheap!
    As you know,,,silver soldering is a form of brazing and brazing with bronze rods is much cheaper then buying silver solder.The only difference is that brazing takes more heat. So,,,I started brazing a few pieces and then after viewing more of Georges videos learned how to gas weld and how to fuse steel.
    I've gotten away from doing my metal art and you are just the inspiration I needed to get back at it again!
    You are a VERY talented/smart man and I thank you for just being you!
    If you would like to see a few of Georges videos here's a link to his TH-cam videos.It won't cost you anything but time and you may like what you see as I did!

    Terrific! I thought I'd need a MIG welder to this! I've always admired seeing "nuts & bolts" sculptures and thought I'd enjoy making them.
    I've an O2 tank and acetylene tank, along with the associated gauges, and torches, which, in the past, I've using for brazing copper shapes (e.g. butterflies, mayflies) al la George Goehl (also on YT), but your very well demonstrated use of silver solder is such an easier process of (small) metal joinery.
    Again, TERRIFIC!!

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      So glad you enjoyed it! I wanted to keep it as straightforward as I could, for people wanting to jump right in. It's a satisfying feeling to hear when someone really got something out of it. Thank you!

    "Where the Heat Goes, The Silver Flows!" should be a Legal Maxim, or a Psalm, a Proverb, a Amateurverb (not errbody verbs is Pro-quality) or a Fable. Maybe a Parable or just a Singleble would do. I just think it makes enough sense to get it in out of the rain. Oughta be engraved on a Courthouse or Pew or something. Its dog gone brilliant in my book. Well done.

    OMG! I love your videos you are like the funny Bob Ross of youtube. Watching your videos always makes me feel better if I had a tough day.
