I get asked about brazing a lot and thought I'd do a quick how-to on brazing basics for anyone starting out. I hope this helps in some way.
This is a full custom YJ (Tamiya body) that I've built using all the tips and tricks from this video.
You can check out my Instagram for more pics of the finished build.

Tube bending would be great . thanks

@ClarkyXPH 3 года назад

Great work Ross. Very detailed and informative. I think it’s amazing to see how what seems like such a tiny simple join is so strong.

I saw the picture and went JEEP! Glad to see someone doing a jeep yj

Great video. Would also love to see more on this. Especially bending the brake line. Can’t wait to see this build complete, top notch work!

@rossnaumov 3 года назад

Many thanks man! The bending video is in the pipeline for sure.

@gfyracing7632 3 года назад

Great video. I'm wanting to get into custom cages for rc rock crawlers. Anything you could teach us would be awesome.

@BroncoSteven69 Год назад

You make it look easy man! Thanks for the video.

Great tutorial. I’d love to see how you bend tube. Greetings from Arizona, USA.

Greetings! From Melbourne. Thanks for watching.

Man amazing videos wish you stuck with them I’m getting into the brazing and tube bending and these have been helpful!

@vknight7376 3 года назад

Thank you!! Very nicely done video! I would definitely like to see the other stages involved in building cages etc. Thats how I came upon this video I looking to build some RC items so I'm trying to learn this process.

awesome video as always bro love it and love how you show how its done on point mate

Thank you!

@racerxrxr 3 года назад

Killer video, really appreciate the time spent clearly explaining how you go about it, what your doing, and why your doing it. +1 for video on hoop construction, cheers

@rossnaumov 3 года назад

Thank you. I will be doing a new video soon on bending tube :)

You're welcome! I'm glad you found it useful.

Great video mate, I'm seriously looking into making my own tube work. Was thinking of gasless MIG but after seeing this maybe braze is the go.

@rossnaumov 2 года назад

Hey mate. Gasless MIG I can't say I'm a fan of but it'll definitely do the jog. I like brazing because it's super easy and looks scale. The joins can look super nice vs migging, gas or gasless. If it's designed correctly 3/16 steel tube is really strong. All my rigs are tube and I give most of them hell.

GOOD JOB THANKS

@rossnaumov 3 года назад

No problem at all!

@chrisryder4709 6 месяцев назад

New to the project , but a video of equipment needed , some things are obvious but it would be a good video , or is there one already ? I'm going to give a VEKTA5 cage a try , and I will be really watching your information closely , I've never done this so I've got the learning curve first of course , thanx much !

@thomaswhetstone2870 2 года назад

Nice video bud 👍 and yes i wanna see tube bending im looking now lol

@rossnaumov 2 года назад

Thank you :) It's Uploaded. Check out my other videos as it's in there.

@rccrawlersmid-wales645 2 года назад

Top stuff, thanks very much! 👍

@mattryan2758 3 года назад

Great work. I use solid rod but very much like to see how you bend right corners in tube. It would be awesome to see a detailed video on this. Is your tube brake line or specific tube stock? Cheers and great video.

@petercardy7456 5 месяцев назад

Hi. Great video and project. I’m just starting out. Limited budget. Could you be more specific with the adding and heating of the flux and specifically which flux. I am using trade flame silver braising flux on copper. I find the flux bubbles and burns. Then nothing will stick with bunning silver solder. . Any advice please! Thanks. Pete.

Hey mate great video! Just wondering where you get your brake line? I can only find it in wound up coil (in AUS) cheers

@mikestinyshedofdreams 2 года назад

thanks, great video

@rossnaumov 2 года назад

No problem 👍🏻

Super informative thank you…

@ModModRc 6 месяцев назад

What type of metal are the rods? I have aluminium ones & aluminium braising rods & they don't run tidy, normally a i burn & melt the aluminium & rods wont melt. Do i need a specific type of flux

@Elmosbackside 2 года назад

I’m gonna attempt to build crash bars front and rear then I’ll try a full chassis lol

@Moshpit_Marv 5 месяцев назад

Will rod work instead of tube?

@LSXvoodoo 3 года назад

Great video, Iv been planning on building a 1/6 Willys Roll cage, just never have tried Brazing Is the Flux a must when brazing?

@rossnaumov 3 года назад

Definitely a must yes. You can get flux coasted rods too. I prefer to use it manually as I find the flux coated rods too thick for such intricate work .

@nitrocell9287 2 года назад

Just wondering, would it be better if rather than letting it air cool you dipped your frame or freshly brazed area in cold water for a fast cool down?

@mamahcempaka5580 2 года назад

using what size, aluminum/iron

@jamesellery6866 3 года назад

Great video - thanks. Why do you do brazing rather than TIG in this situation?

@rossnaumov 3 года назад

TIG welding is a completely different ball game. They all have pros and cons. I actually TIG weld outside of RC projects on 1/1 cars. I prefer brazing as it's cleaner and a lot simpler. I use 3/16 mild steel tube whereas a TIG cage generally uses solid rod.

@paulwizal23d89 Год назад

What kind of flux is that excatly?

@rossnaumov Год назад

I'm in Australia so it might be different to what's available where you are, but this is what I use: www.boc.com.au/shop/en/au/boc-easyflo-sb-flux-paste

My father was a welder in the military for 23 years and of course after the military he did a lot of artwork so I gotta have some of that talent not trying to be conceited but I’m pretty handy I’ve been practicing and practicing I was able to get a hold of some good brazing rod with a really high silver content,……. I know this is kind of a idiotic question what is long has the rod or the lines that you’re freezing or clean don’t have to put flux on those right just the brazing rod??? I’m gonna keep going with that the only problem with my brazing rod is it’s pretty thick I want to say it’s 1.5 maybe two mil
