Reply to "The 300 LOFT ELECTRIC RAILROAD: It still runs..."

Note to Nate Murray:  You don't need a kiln for silver soldering.  A small pinpoint butane torch available from Micro Mark would do the trick.  I build live steamers in 3 1/2 inch gauge and O gauge and have an oxy-acetylene rig for boiler making and soldering brass check valves, injectors, axle pumps, etc. together.  You would only need one fire brick for small items like your supports.  Use iron wire to tie them together as the silver solder won't adhere to the iron wire.  Silver solder is available in rods and in sheet form for small items like your project.
