Default OT? Brazing Stainless Steel?

Should be, if you can get things hot enough.

On the other hand, you might be able to have this done at an auto repair
shop. My mechanic does a couple types of welding, and has repaired an office
chair for me. And, a couple of other metal welds.

But I don't weld. All I've got is one of those itty-bitty MAPP
gas torches, some bronze and silver brazing rods, and some
brazing flux for each.

Is there any hope of getting a decent bond that way?

Intended use is on the water - so I'd rather not determine
whether it will drop off or not experimentally.... -)


I'll crosspost this to a home repair group. There might be
someone who can answer that there. I do a little welding but
not professionally.
