Question! Anybody use this welding soldering toll for small repair?

[Jayson]

Does anybody know anything about this repair technology? Recently I found this thing and wondering if I can use it for small repair.

Unless there are any snake oil salesmen on here, I doubt you'll get a "professional" opinion. Can't tell whether this is just a subtle way of spamming or whether you are legitimately a normal person believing that poppycock has any ounce of truth.

sounds like spam/scam to me

In order to be able to offer UHST on a larger scale and make it the most affordable for everyone, we need to be able to make a full production run, which will take materials and labor resources.

Risks and challenges

Every project has possible obstacles and roadblocks and we are no exception. The good news is that we already have a fully tested and functional prototype of solder-hermetic tool and should be able to scale full production run (after making improvements) without too many issues. Possible delays could arise if we have difficulty to buy industrial equipment for big scale production, including the material for new molds and new cooling system. We are talking with a couple possible suppliers that should be able to meet our production process needs.

Supporters will be kept up to date with updates on the production process and shipment.

Solder to ceramics?

Hold an aluminium stick in your bare hand whilst the end melts?

OP's 1st post bringing this to our attention?

If it wasn't so funny I'd delete the thread. Moved to Brew Room to give us all some light entertainment.

Only ironwood.

You could use it on some fish - steelhead.
