Default Soldering different metals together.

I'm sure somebody here will know the answer to my question. Can I solder brass to steel? I'm adding some small tabs to a chassis and have some small brass stock on hand already. Thanks

Yes you can. Just watch the brass. Apply more heat to metel first if you can, then to brass when steel is almost to temp. I would practice first, the brass is harder to tell temp then steel just by color.
