Smith Versa Torch, with natural gas and oxygen. You can use a hardware store propane torch too!

Good evening, congratulations on your work, kindly, what kind of solder do you use to solder the copper, I want to do some test Cuban currents using the copper, I soldered with a silfoscoper, but when it comes to twisting, even though I annealed the copper, it breaks in the solder, can you help me? thank you very much

We use Grifflux and Dandix flux. Both are paste types. A quick internet search should give you some places to buy from. Thanks for watching! :)

Id love to be able to do that but dont have a jewellers torch it looks cool tho 😊

Micro Torch or butane torch works well for *small* projects. Search it up on Riogrande.com or Amazon!

18 gauge copper wire!

Can this be done with enameled coated copper?

@LadyBerz

That, I do not know. The metal has to be exposed at the connection points in order to solder the two together. Maybe the enamel can fuse pieces together? I've never tried it....

Hello, this is a great tutorial, thank you. What do you mean by putting it in 'the pickle'? Also, is there any reason why you don't use a conventional soldering iron instead of the flame and lastly, I am very impressed by the way you handle that flame. I would've burnt the house down. Respect!😂

Thanks for your compliments! When torch soldering (this project is for my jewelry class), pickle is an acid solution that cleans up the black oxidation left on the metal. This project is FAR easier if you use a soldering iron. That way you can position the pieces right on the sticky side of masking tape, and tack the connections. Do that, definitely!

How do you add solder with a flux brush?

I am using sheet solder here, cut into little chips, aka pallions. I dip the brush into the flux, which makes the solder piece cling to the brush better. To place it onto the join, gently twirl the brush so the piece comes off the brush.

Torch soldering involves either a gas/oxygen torch, or an inexpensive propane or butane torch, a solder surface, a solder pick, some silver solder, and some jeweler's flux. Look up jewelry soldering here on YT, you'll find all the info you need. :-)

Where can I buy a good copper wire

Hi, You can do a google search to see if your local chain hardware store (lowe's, home depot) has some 14, 16 or 18 gauge spools. Otherwise, amazon, or jewelry supply sites (riogrande.com, fire mountain gems, etc.) are good places to search.
