Does anyone fancy a challenge..?

I thought silicon bronze melted at around 900c, pans don't get near that do they.
High temperature in an oven is 240c.

must be a hell of a cooker

In an oven! This is adjacent to a blue flame with that blue flame playing on the end of the part
I don't know if it's going to be an issue to be fair - it just worries me a little
Likely as not it wants a good test equal to steaming a big Christmas pud or doing an all day broth?

put it this way try brazing it with oxy acetylene and u need the metal to be cherry red for the bronze rod to melt in . so its hardly going to melt and drop off the pans are only aluminium and after u have burnt the taties dry it still don't melt

Maybe Kents cooker uses oxy acetylene as it's fuel source

 

[Kent]

It's got nothing to do with heating the pan that's for sure
The flame from the burner of a gas stove plays onto the cast iron support and it's that part that is proposed to be brazed

Maybe John can combine brazing Silicon bronze and brazing steak in the same Vid

 

[Wedg1e]

Yes I would repair it for you
Could do a bit video as well

Howld on, wouldn't you just use it as a pattern and cast a new one from melted down thrusset trunnions and gimbal sprommets?

using an original casting as a pattern would make the newly cast one smaller than the original when the metal cools and shrinks

You're not just a really good looking bloke you, are ya
Anyway, nobody spotted my deliberate mistake: thrussets don't have trunnions

Very true indeed

No way a standard domestic hob would get it hot enough to melt the braze in normal use

My dad used to call my mother's kitchen The Altar... 'cos all he ever got were burnt offerings.
