Work Ideas & Techniques
When putting Bondo over the ¼” copper pipe in the tiles, do all tiles clamped together - one side at a time
Add graphite to Bondo to make it black
How to remove lint from a cleaned & sanded patinated surface – use sticky tape!
For edge blacking – don't use black latex caulk. Dries up outdoors, cracks. Use black latex paint
To make a coating black – add powdered graphite!
To thicken up a coating – add 403 Silica
Don’t use PolyU glue (gorilla glue or similar) on dowel tips with dimensional designs – it breaks off too easily when twisted
Grizzly cutter – do little nibbles – not big bites
5 mil weavings – always have a 1” overhang to allow room for brazing and to allow fold over of the brazed part
Wavy Weavings – glue to the under-metal, then fold over edges and glue those as well.
