    The next time you want to remove excess solder: Use a torch to lightly soften up the solder and the wipe the solder off with a cloth pipe cleaner. Keep going over it repeatedly until you've removed all the excess solder. This is how it's done in brass musical instrument repair s shops.

    That's a good technique if you're skilled and have just a bit of cleanup, but in this instance he had so much clean up that the brass would absorb and hold so much heat he could risk a sliding braise joint and throw everything out of whack. I doubt he has the fine touch with a torch to manage the heat properly to soften up only the bits of solder he wants to... Although, it is a very useful tip to remember for when you need to clean up just a bit of solder! I once tried wrapping steel wool around a soldering iron with wire and scrubbing it away like that! Haha it DID NOT WORK. This technique would've helped a lot!

    Next time you bend large brass pieces like that, make a wooden form similar to your front and back but with thicker wood, attach to your bench and use a nylon and wooden mallet and a curved wooden piece to pound the brass into shape. How tradesmen used to do it with that same lamp you have. Wooden forms make it very consistent.
