Working with tin?
--Have been making use of that .008" thick "easy solder" tin sheet
that you can get at hobby shops. It's nice and bendy and can be hammered easily to remove dents, etc. Trouble is it oxidizes and turns fairly awful mottled colors fairly quickly. Can someone recommend a way to 'fix' the finish without using paint? I'm using bent pieces of the stuff to connect bell to foot pieces for an octave of whistles that will be operated in a fairly hot environment. -- "Steamboat Ed" Haas : "Hold on! we're entering Hacking the Trailing Edge! : the moronosphere!" www.nmpproducts.com ---Decks a-wash in a sea of words--- |
