  • Ever wanted to braze your own carbide tooling?
    And what about HSS?
    Lots of talking early on, was in a chatty mood I guess. Start @ 5:40 and you won't miss anything important.
    When I'm not brazing carbide, I'm brazing in the kitchen (still carbide) with Alex French Guy Cooking. Check him out at: / frenchguycooking
    Thanks Alex!

      Soldering is not a strong mechanical bond. Just a surface bond. It Melts at temperatures below 200F. It cracks under force, heat cycles or vibration and therefore needs strain relief to prevent joint failure. Usually only copper to copper joints in plumbing or electrical connections.
      Brazing is much stronger, enough that it can be structural. Is done at much higher temperature and can join several metals even dissimilar ones with a strong joint often as strong as welding.
      So, no. They’re not essentially the same.

    Older cast iron bathtubs had a tendency to be cold around the edges and back in our day it was common (because it was so much work to heat up water on a wood stove) to not throw out the water from the first bather but simply heat it up with an extra pan of water. After a few bathers (normally kids in a family) there would be a waxy/greasy ring around the edge of the tub. Based on that, it’s amusing at best an appropriate for a 7 year old joke book from the early 30’s.

    • @costarich8029
      @costarich8029 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yep my mom told me stories of half a dozen kids taking baths in the same water, and the younger kids had to go last as they were presumed to be more likely to pee in the tub.

    The blue is surface impurities trapped by the flux from the cobalt matrix of the insert. You made Smalt, Cobalt Alumilite, where we get the famous Cobalt Blue.

    • @leonardpearlman4017
      @leonardpearlman4017 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Cobalt Glass! ?! Makes sense, if the "cemented" carbides are cemented with cobalt. Then you get cobalt oxides, which dissolve in the flux along with the other oxides, making your own custom bits of glass!

    @matthewmontgomery3693 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2054

    It's a terrible joke. When you are really dirty and you take a bath, you can leave a ring of grime around the tub. The first one in is the leader, hence "ring-leader".

    • @gelerson1642
      @gelerson1642 6 ปีที่แล้ว +113

      Also, since there are multiple people in the tub, obviously somebody had to come up with the idea and convince the others to bathe with him. Thus, double-entendre.

    I remember those books! One of my favorite books was called "The Boy Electrician," or something like that. It was published in the 1940s and still in our library and contained safe and sane things you could do at home, like getting ahold of an old x-ray tube, building a high-voltage power supply, and using it to make radiographs of your hand, your sister, or whatever.
    It was probably that book that finally convinced me the grownups really were out to kill us. Well, that and the A. C. Gilbert Home Atomic Energy Lab, that contained a spinthariscope, a cloud chamber, maybe a Geiger counter, and, of course, samples of radioactive materials to make it all work.

  • @dennisstephens7777
    @dennisstephens7777 6 ปีที่แล้ว +85

    I really enjoy (and learn from) your videos. But as a metallurgist, I have a few comments. "Soft solders" include the 96Tin-4Silver replacement for various Tin-Lead alloys. These alloys lack sufficient shear strength for tooling applications. "Hard solders" are brazing alloys, defined by the American Welding Society defines as having liquidus (flow) temperatures over 840F. Silvaloy 450, Safety-Silv 45 and other BAg-5 alloys are 45Ag-30Cu-25Zn and flow at ~1330F, plenty hot enough to soften high speed steels. When building carbide tipped tools with large surface area or corner/slot constraint, consider one of the trimetal shim preforms available from Lucas-Milhaupt. Silver-copper-silver (1-2-1)composites manage thermal stresses better and avoid carbide cracking. Obviously, the filler material and flux are in place before the torch is lit. Also, joint clearance is important. For the BAg-5 alloy, 0.003" per side is optimal and provides highest joint strength.

  • @PeopleAlreadyDidThis
    @PeopleAlreadyDidThis 6 ปีที่แล้ว +546

    It’s interesting to read all the “ringleader” joke theories posed here, and they’re likely proof of why people fail to understand the actions of their predecessors in history. For all the clever suggestions, the joke is certainly simple, was utterly obvious at the time, and would have been funny then. In an age when most of the population was rural, electricity and gas weren’t yet universal and were often quite rare, and therefore heating water was difficult and expensive, entire families shared bath water, which probably also had to be drawn by bucket from a well or hauled from a creek. People worked farms and “dirty jobs” industries, in the heat, got really dirty, and in many cases bathed only weekly. Where you might eventually make a dirt ring at the waterline today, the ring was “quick & dirty” then, pun intended-grime, oils, soap. So the first person in the tub, perhaps the head of household, was definitely the ringleader. Everyone used the word in its usual senses, so the pun was obvious. It’s been said that after a family of 10 finished bathing in the same water on a Saturday night, the water was opaque with dirt. Since children often bathed last, finishing with the youngest, the saying arose, “Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water.” Its meaning is philosophical now, but then it was a joke that referred to the fact that the baby was practically invisible in the filthy water. Sounds disgusting, but after a week without any bath...maybe not.
    Many more people were poorly educated. A seventh-grade formal education wasn’t uncommon a century ago. Life necessitated work, not more school, but while they were behind us in formal education, they were often ahead in practical skills. Nonetheless, times were simpler and so was humor, so the ringleader joke would have been a lot funnier. It’s enlightening to hear old Vaudeville routines from those days. Their uproariously funny humor is beyond corny now, yet there’s a lot to be said for it in contrast to today’s comedy.
    As for modern interpretation of the ringleader joke, it’s easy to make the same errors people easily make when looking at any historical item. If you don’t know its context, you’ll inevitably judge it (distort it) by modern expectations, analyze aspects into it that never existed, subject it to your own biases, and reach a faulty conclusion. You have to be careful and thoughtful with the past. In some cases, people have forgotten that.

    • @muchtall
      @muchtall 5 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Thanks for that. I grew up on a dairy farm, and vaguely recall hearing this joke as a kid. Honestly, it probably fell as flat to me then as it did to me now, and had to be explained then as well. Your explanation seems correct. Matter of fact, the "dirt ring" was the thing that immediately popped into my head when I heard this joke for the first time, again(?). Indeed, the humor is probably lost without proper cultural and historical context. It was probably only because of my rural upbringing that I even managed to connect the dots to make this joke make sense. To most of the populace nowadays, even explaining the that it's a "dirt ring" would have left blank stares as taking a bath is far less common, much less sharing the same bathwater.

What a miserable human being you must be, either delighting in the trolling of perfect strangers, or casting aspersions on others' intelligence simply because your cultural history differs from theirs. Perhaps both. Regardless, neither speaks well of your own intelligence or ability to see things from others' perspectives. Maybe if you use a few more swear words, you'll sound more intelligent and win people over to your argument.

    I work in band instrument repair. I fell down the rabbit hole of your channel because we do a lot of lathe work to make our own tools. Brass instruments are held together with solder, so we do a lot of that as well. My experience has mostly been with 94/6 and 96/4 tin/silver solder for what we call "soft" soldering. Something that we want to be able to take apart again some day. We tend to use the terms "hard soldering" "silver soldering" and "brazing" interchangeably, even though our soft solder is technically also a silver alloy. Silver soldering is for things we don't want to come apart again ever (broken parts or homemade tools, usually). It's interesting to learn more about soldering applications that I can bring to the shop.
    My friends and I love your content and humor. Keep it up! (:

    Great video Tony as always! Mapp gas and a turbo torch would do the joints you did with no problem. anything bigger your right you need the oxy-acetylene. High speed steel brazes fine with safety-silv 56 which has a liquidus of 1205F which is in the realm of the red hardness range of high speed steel. The safety-silv 45 has a liquidus of 1370F so it would not be ideal. I only buy the 56 because it works better on just about everything.

    Okay, I have to make a confession: I have used Oxy-Acetylene to solder copper pipes. You have to be really gentle, though.
    I tried to show someone else how to do it -- he said he knew how to braze, so I assumed he could also solder. I looked away, and when I looked back the entire joint was glowing. He actually managed to fuse the copper joint together.
    Goes to show, don't assume that people know what you mean.

    Brazing, contrary to old timer assumptions, is not mechanical there actually is chemical fusion although the base parts aren't melted the atoms near the surface do diffuse and alloy.
    I think the term brazing actually [originally] referred specifically to hard soldering with brass and bronze, current common use is just a synonym for all hard or high temp soldering.
    Metallurgically speaking fusion welding also doesn't need more than an atom or two of penetration to achieve full strength, the hitch is in practically accomplishing that such precise fusion in a real world joint without significant flaws.

    • @bostedtap8399
      @bostedtap8399 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Excellent discription, yes, brazing temperatures does alloy with parent material, soldering does not. I am not sure in the regard to the sintered carbide, does it alloy, or does it penetrate the sintered structure. May I ask your opinion on this. Regards John.
