[TowerTalk] Silver solder

[Richard Thorne]

I recently purchased some silver solder from my local hobby store for my
remote control airplanes (for attaching clevis's to control rods etc).

It was expensive, $6 for a small coil of solder and a small bottle of
liquid flux.

But I can tell you that my radioshack 40 watt iron made that stuff flow
like crazy.  I was very pleased with the outcome.  So if you can get a
solder gun/iron or a small butane torch to your soldering site, you
should be in good shape.

I believe the trick to it was the flux.
