Copper soldering with heat gun

Postby 1 2many » Wed Aug 26, 2015 7:04 pm

Hi guys

Saw this video on the tube and this guy was using a EAT GUN :))

Just wondered if anyone has tried this method, a guy in the comments seems to think it works well but it is a slower process the a gas torch of course.

So break out your heat guns and give it a try on some small stuff.

It should work, heat guns get to 600ish depending on the heatgun you have.
Might be a a little hard to do any of the finer jobs but yeah should do it.
