Spinning Ring Flarer FAQs
Getting an even flare using the Durston flaring tool can be sometimes a bit tricky. It is so important not to use too much solder on your joint and to have the most perfect solder joint too. If you have too much solder then it will thicken the metal making it flat unevenly. If you have to remove your excess solder then you may inadvertently thin out your metal and so that area of metal will bend and flat easier than the rest.LED
The ring must be evenly annealed so you may need to anneal it several times before you start to flat it.
Add a little oil to the faces of the flare, the areas that are going to make the flare as the metal will slide easier.
When you assemble the ring in the flare make sure that it is central and even in the flare or you will get an uneven flare. Start to tighten the flare slowly. Make sure the flat is starting to flare evenly. Stop tightening take the ring out of the flare and turn it over and start to tighten it back up. By slowly tightening it and then repositioning the ring, you should get an even flare. Turning over and repositioning the ring several times will ensure that if there are any unevenness in the flare, this is evened out around the ring.
If the ring has flared more on one edge then anneal the edge that has not flared only and retry. This is to make that unflared edge soft whilst keeping the flared edge hard (work hardened) so it flares out. Once the edges have flared evenly you can evenly anneal the whole ring to get a more drastic flare.
