   Has anyone seen the U Tube vidio How its made,Mamod steam engins

   being made and assembled,The boilers are soldered with a grey solder

   paste which is painted on to the parts to be joined,dose anyone know the

   composition of this paste,And if it can be purchased,

Assuming its just soft solder paste then I get mine from CuP alloys who sell it in small tins the size of Humbrol paint as a full container works out quite expensive.

 

I would think twice about using it for a pressure vestle though.

Hi Charlie,

CuP alloys also do a silver solder paste, very useful stuff it is too.
