I need a special purpose boring bar and have a simple question. I suppose I could just try it and see what happens, but...
I'm thinking of making a steel bar, cutting an appropriate notch in the end, brazing a piece of tool steel into the notch and grinding it as required.
I have a couple questions:
- What will brazing do to the temper of the tool steel? Should I quench it after brazing in water? Oil? (What kind of oil?)
- I've been told that brazing won't adhere very well to tool steel. Does anyone know for sure? Tried it before?
Thanks.
