MATERIAL DEPOSITION FOR FLUID NOZZLE JOINTS

A method of making a fluid injection component for a gas turbine engine includes depositing material onto a piece of tube stock (102). The method includes machining an elbow (110) into the deposited material, wherein machining the elbow (110) includes forming a braze joint surface in the deposited material. Depositing can include laser cladding the material onto the piece of tube stock (102).
