Subject: 12volt battery velding or butane pencil torch brazing two iron horseshoes Author: pete 'sky' [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:50:54 10/13/02 Sun Hi, i need to weld two iron horseshoes for a gift. I don't know any welders, so i'm thinking about doing it myself. I've searched the internet and found mention of using 6 volt or 12 volt batteries (car or tractor) for welding. I also found a small butane pencil torch that, though will not weld iron, will heat it up enough for brazing. I need advice- whether i should try to weld using a car battery or try to braze them. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank You. The links i found.
