Soldering is done at a lower temprature where brazing is done at a higher temprature. Brazing has a higher tensile strength (stronger) than soldering.

Brazing is stronger than soldering. Soldering is mainly used for bonding electronics/wires together. Brazing is for structural elements. Brazing rod, which has higher strength, also has a higher melting point.

make sure you put a door on it so you can get out.

I have a chassis in my shop right now that someone soldered together... you can pull it apart with your hands.
