Jay C posted:Why do I feel setup. On the other thread you asked about soldering a specific model. That model is made of fairly heavy brass. Far heavier than most anything else you're going to come across except maybe an old brass cast door stop. I provided you an answer for the specific model. To use the information provided to speak to general repairs is apples and oranges.
What to use for general brass modeling is a loaded question. I use large & small torches, a good resistance soldering machine, a digital hot air machine, soldering irons, and guns. No one tool is correct for every task. I like Stay-Brite solder and flux but I also use plain 60/40 and No-Korode flux. Shoot, I still use solder paint sometimes. Sometime I braze, sometimes I soft solder.
Why do I feel I'm wasting my time here?

Your not wasting your time in my view, some of us like or need to here stuff either a few times or like a 2x4 in the head
