Seamless ring joints by
Anat
Hi,
I'd appreciate an advice from you experienced guys on making seamless
joints in rings. While the soldering on the external ring diameter
always becomes seamless after filing, the inner diameter side of the
joint often stays visible.
TIA,
Anat.

I'm trying to rebuild a thermal evaporator. We need a power supply to
heat the boats (only precious metals and aluminum). I've seen very
high prices for power supplies at some vendors, and I read that a

reticulation, having never used this alloy before. The strip was about
1" wide and cold-forged / rolled to 2mm. After that much, our patience
expired!
In a roughly square piece it was notable that there was massive
