Hey Gents.
Couple follow up questions in regards to those having troubles silver soldering with their Mapp torch.
I've ran into this too.
At least, I did on a 2" boka head doing the slant plates but I really need to make a few flanges on some tube so I thought i'd post it here because it seemed relevant.
I have the tradeflame Mapp kit from Bunno's
https://www.bunnings.com.au/tradeflame- ... t_p5910233I couldn't get enough heat into it to get the solder to run, before completely burning off the flux and making everything nasty...
My question is, at $125ish is the TS8000 head really going to be a worthwhile investment for me? Do you think it will solve these issues?
Reason I ask is they also sell a disposable Oxy kit for $300. I don't really have $300 spare right now, but i also don't want to fork out $125ish for a head and be in the same place....
Need some solid wisdom here please?
