Brazing

Brazing's a fairly difficult skill- try some soft soldering first, using flux and how to apply your heat so the solder moves to where that is, then work up to silver-soldering and the like

Thanks anon, a lot of things i solder i like you use rosin core with flux in it. Does brazing have options like this? I read at certain temps with brazing your flux will change colors. I have done a few arc welds however it ruins the molecular compounds in the products i am making ruining the magnetic charge the metal needs to hold. I did some research and brazing seems like a better option for what i am doing. Is this something you recommend i try at home to experiment? The gas tanks required seem a little scary to be sitting in a garage. Thoughts?

Try some sheet metal soft soldering- make a tool tray or something like that
>Clean up the edges, remove any zinc coating, flux the joins, apply heat and then run the solder along it.

That's sort of how I ended up learning to braze and solder, later on moved into a bit of copper and silver brazing in more industrial/plumbing applications. I'm not a professional though and we do have some plumbers lurking here which might be able to jump in.

Will do ill try it out thanks anon!

Some brazing you can do with a MAPP torch so you don't need to go to an oxy-acetalyne torch. There are quite a few types of braze available, a cheap way to learn is some copper water pipe fittings and some phos-copper or silver solder rods from the hardware store (no flux needed for those two types on copper).
You can do a lot of brazing with silver solder rods and the appropriate flux, but the key elements are a clean, well fluxed joint and good joint fitup - you want a light push fit so that capillary action can pull the braze between the joint faces. There's usually a torrent floating around containing the book Soldering and Brazing by Tubal Cain - it's one of the miniature steam engine builders bibles, so if you can download a copy of it' it'll tell you plenty.

i've brazed copper-brass fittings together with oxypropane ( using something-silv brazing rod, the 0% silver rod lol ) and harris stay-silv flux, the flux makes it flow nice

here's some bronze brazing and a cast iron intake manifold repair
