Thread: *&#& it! Wrong rod, will it work

Okay Spaz, this is brazing rod, so that was what I was wondering, how it would peen out. my uncle said it would be harder than brass so I wasnt' sure how it would peen out. I also picked up some CA today, I'm planning on posting about it tomorrow when I can see (when I drink if I don't wear my glasses I see double, which is great if I'm looking at the gallery pages )

You could try annealing a bit to make it softer. It's not like annealing brass, though - you don't let it air-cool, you quench it in water. Heat to a dull-red (orange or cherry-red will cause it to melt) and plunge it into sold water. It might end up very soft, but working it will harden it a bit.

Nah, if I have to go to that trouble I'll take it back and order online. Not like I'd have a set finished this week anyways. just too many damn things going on. I cannot believe how projects stack up.

Thanks guys.
