Welding Tips and Tricks

I have some cast aluminum furniture, a bench with a broken arm rest and a table with a broken leg.

Can I braze it?
Or can a NON high frequency ac welder with a scratch start tig weld it?
I know that it could be tig welded with an aluminum welder but I do not have one. This are really my only 2 options.
Thanks Seth.

Weld it with the rig you described? No.

try this.

Good suggestion. I gave this stuff a shot before buying my ACDC TIG and I was really surprised at the strength of the brazed joint. One down side is that if you have to braze another joint nearby, the heat will melt the first joint that you brazed and it will fall apart. But for single 'welds' it works great.

Thanks guys. I will try it.

I watched the videos, looks great if it works as promised. They stress cleaning the joint. Also, look for cheaper prices on amazon.

Forgot to mention: post up some pics, and tell us how it goes!
