Hey, I am from east central Ohio and I am thinking of building a tubular. What flux, solder and heat source do you use for construction? Gary |

Gary, you need a very hot torch set up, either mapp gas or a real torch(oxy/sed) Lowes and most hardwares sell sticks of 3/32 brazing rod with flux already on it. Thats what I use. Made this last night |
