Solder is used to bond metal pieces together and when applied properly can make your workpiece watertight. In this video lesson I want to introduce a few of the useful applications and techniques I have learned throughout my career. I hope you will try your hand at this project or at least have a better understanding of how to solder. Please let me know if you have any questions. I will be happy to assist you along your journey.
The method in which I made this box is customizable to whatever size or shape you are wanting to fabricate. The objective of this video is encourage creativity, layout of your design, becoming more proficient with the tools you have on hand, and learning new techniques to achieve your project needs.
The more you know the farther you go!
If you make any of the projects we feature in our video lessons we would love to see them. Send us your photos to our email address:
sheetmetalisfun@yahoo.com
We will be featuring the photos in one of our KZfaq videos and adding them to our Fabulous Fabricators scrapbook.
Thank you for hanging out with us on Sheet Metal is Fun!!!
Ken the Sheet Metal Dude and Stacy!!

I really look forward to your videos Ken! Your attention to detail, teaching skill, and demeanor are fantastic! PLUS... I get a good chuckle several times throughout. Now I'm going to bake some cookies!

I can take your word for it that everything you teach is 100% truthful! NOT LIKE so many of the multitudes of KZfaq weekend warriors!

I like these old school simple channels💪

Your method using snippets of solder reminds me of "the Luminary Shoppe", except he was using a very fine gas flame to make brass frames for bevelled glass lantern faces.

Ken, you are too much. I've been watching as many of your videos as I can, and I must say I have not been bored a moment. I will give it a try. I am short on money but I know where I can get all the material I need to start. Scribes comes from old screwdriver and a break is easy to make. I believe I can do it. I see old refrigerator going to the scrap yard all the time. All those flat panels already painted. What a start! Sell some of the works, then buy all the tooling I need. Thank you and God bless you and your wife, she is a special person to come out in you shop. You are a very lucky man. Again THANK YOU AND YOURS!!!

@outsidescrewball

Great lesson!!!!❤❤❤ Great video production/filming!! Liked the quick jest “heart attack” when clamping….lol

@slic_sinatra5891

Awesome! If i may suggest a video on making the old school miners style lunchbox that tradesman of the past carried would be great!

Didn’t expect soldering. Awesome and will be beneficial for some projects. Thanks.

Very nice tutorial. Thank you for teaching us to solder sheet metal.

@mikehindley3

I didn't make one of your exact project, Ken, but I did make a simple drawer for keeping small welding supplies in my welding trolley. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. All the best from Manchester, England.

Nice job - Thanks for sharing this!

Ken, I had to let you know how much I enjoy your videos! I’ve picked up so many tips and tricks from you! Your teaching style and demeanor are very enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your talent to the world! I’m a mechanic, and usually pop onto KZfaq to watch automotive content. Thankfully I stumbled upon your channel, and now can’t wait to play with some sheet metal!
