Brazing vs welding

[mhorowit]

I noticed on 88M the bell-crank that connects the brake cable to the 'z' link is brazed to the tube upon which it it mounted. Is that because of the difference in thickness between the bell-crank and the tube or am I seeing someone's variations on the original? - Mike

Hey Mike,

Often secondary structures are brazed. I think its a cost issue usually. I guess sometimes cost translates into ease. DAve.
