At the moment for all my soldering I'm just using a small held held Mapp Gas torch that uses the disposable bottles.
Its fine for the smaller items but in the near future I want to have a go at making some very basic boilers, probably just a 'pot' boiler to start with and see how things go from there.
Now my little Mapp gas blow torch simply won't be big enough to silver solder boilers so I need to get a new blow torch.
I'm trying to keep the cost down a bit so was thinking of getting a blow torch that simply runs off LPG (Propane) bottles.
Has anyone here used these torches to silver solder small boilers (No bigger than 2 inch or so diameter and around 15cm long or shorter) up?
Or does anyone have a better suggestion?
Thanks
Tony
