Alright fellas. I'm getting serious about working out the details for my GLWJ/MKS build-off folder and I've got a few questions about working with titanium.
1. Can I silver solder Carbon Steel Damascus to the Ti liners for bolsters?
2. Assuming I can do this. Will Ferric Cloride hurt the Ti when etching the bolsters ?
3. How about spot welding Ti ?
Basically I want stay away from the "Erector Set" look of screws everywhere so I want to attach the bolsters with nothing showing but the pivot screws.
I guess I could also drill and tap screws from the inside of the liner huh ???
Any answers / suggestions or advice would be greatly appreceiated guys.
