    Did you solder silver onto stainless steel? Im trying to find out what i need to complete this task 😅

    Yeah I think I used both medium and hard silver solder. Requires a "type B" flux though. I liked the black flux more.

    Awesome build. I wanna learn welding but welding in my home garage with a MiG kinda freaks me out. I’ve seen with Tig welding there seem to be less sparks of any. Would Tig be a reasonable choice ? Or is it too difficult to start out with.

  • @PunkerBuilds
    @PunkerBuilds28 күн бұрын

    Hi, thanks for watching! TIG definitely requires more coordination but it's really just a lot of practice and patience. We're typically taught to work up to it. I learned about good welding practices with MIG then applied that to TIG. I'm the same way, I don't want to ruin the concrete and mig spatter tends to blow little chunks of the concrete away. Main advantage to TIG is that the same machine will weld stainless, aluminum, copper, bronze, nickel and everything else. I don't think it's too difficult, but it requires patience.

  • @PunkerBuilds
    @PunkerBuilds29 күн бұрын

    They have different applications. Both good in their own right but solidworks is amazingly powerful on the engineering side and when done correctly, will easily generate all the cut lists and drawings. Rhino has excellent surface tools and is better from an industrial design perspective. I use rhino at work almost exclusively. Mostly for 3D printing, cnc router files and occasional laser cutting.

    Ahh ok, if you're not an experienced jewellery or welder, i wouldn't worry about the welding part just yet.

Best of luck!

    You wrote on a comment about the flux, but what about the solder. Cause siver solder is much lighter and you can see the difference in color.
