Abstract

A method for forming a tool 10 and a tool 10 which is comprised of several selectively coupled sectional members, such as members 12, 16 , which are placed upon a heat resistant surface 20 . A sealing material 24 , such as copper in a solid molecular state, is placed around the periphery of the tool 10 . The copper in a solid molecular state 24 , the heat resistant surface 20 , and the tool 10 are placed within a heat source which transforms the copper in a solid molecular state 24 into liquid which flows within the gaps, such as gap 41 and within knife edges 26, 28 which exists within the tool 10 . After the copper 24 cools, the cooper 24 reinforces and strengthens the tool 10.

Claims (13)

1. A method for creating a tool having at least one knife edge comprising the steps of:

forming a first member having a certain shape;

forming a second member having a certain shape;

attaching said first member to said second member;

placing said attached first and second members on a surface;

disposing a certain material around the periphery of said attached first and second members;

placing said surface, said attached first and second members, and said certain material in a heat source which provides a certain temperature for a predetermined amount of time; causing said certain material to wick between said first and second member, and

removing said attached first and second members from said heat source, effective to form a relatively strong laminated tool.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of placing said attached first and second members on a surface further comprises the step of providing a surface which is heat resistant.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of disposing a certain material around the periphery of said attached first and second members further comprises the step of providing a certain material which comprises a molecular structure which allows said certain material to have a lower melting point than the material of said first and said second members.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein said step of disposing a certain material around the periphery of said attached first and second members further comprises the step of calculating the amount of said certain material needed by summing the volume of gaps occurring within the tool.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of placing said surface, said attached first and second members, and said certain material in a heat source which provides a certain temperature for a predetermined amount of time further comprises the step of providing a heat source which is capable of generating a sufficient level of heat to transform said certain material from a solid molecular state to a liquid molecular state.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein said step of removing said attached first and second members from said heat source further comprises the step of allowing said first and second attached members to cool before utilizing said laminated tool.
