My 1st rec is to check out Paul Brodie on YT, his older videos, maybe three years ago.
It's oxy/acetylene brazing w/ quite a few good ideas on display. He's a pretty good teacher for a niche topic.
>brazed quite a bit of 6" copperIt's all the same idea, how the braze alloy flows towards the heat, how you work your flame around to 'draw' the alloy around.
But bike tubing is much more similar to plumbing vs filling a crack in a cast iron pump housing. So that's good.
>I have a little HVAC oxy acetylene rigThat's the ideal mix. Even though your bottles are small (the oxy bottle), you'll be able to control your flame.
It starts getting dodgy when someone only has a propane or mapp setup. Like starting on hard mode.
Do you have a bike stand? Or are you doing the 'Doug Fattic' flat table setup? Or a bike-specific fixture? And I've seen a few clever 80/20 aluminum extrusion setups.
How are you going to bend your tubes? Miter your tubes?
There's so much to this topic, and I'm an old guy that's eager to share his knowledge.
