Mapp will help but if you can get oxy/acet you'll be good as gold, mapp will work but try not to have too much touching it copper is a huge conductor. If you had the ring in the vice try putting the ring in needle nose pliers with the handle clamped in the vice less surface area less heat transfer but you will battle with propane. Get mapp or pinch an oxy :handgestures-thumbupleft:
