I watched Jody's vid on this but when he is on AC brazing with Aluminium Bronze he didn't state which tungsten he was using, Zirconiated or Thoriated? I assume it would be Zirconiated so it doesn't melt but assumption is mother of all fuck ups!! Cheers for the help!

Jody has said in a number of videos that he favors 2% lanthanated for everything. I have a lot of tungsten. Much of it is NOS I've bought from numerous sources. I can't make pure work well, but otherwise, I use it all interchangeably. Some deforms a bit quicker than others, I find even if I don't dip a tungsten it needs changing occasionally, cause it gets contaminated just from fumes.
