I am wanting to make a model car based on a space frame chassis and was thinking of using aluminium rod/bar. I have not attempted anything like this before so its a bit of a learning curve. I am thinking of brazing the pieces together but am unsure of what I will need to do this. I have a small butane torch, pen type that I mainly use with a soldering attachment, will this be sufficient to braze rods of up to 6mm thick? I'm open to suggestions on the best way forward from you experienced people.
By the way, I went to the show in Harrogate. I was very impressed by the quality of workmanship in the models. Got me motivated to finish a few projects that I have had lingering around for ages, can't wait for the Pickering show.
thanks
