Hello, I need to solder some 1-1/2" bronze drain pipe fittings like this: http://bit.ly/jopSXO in a sort of tight spot. I have one of those common Bernzomatic propane torches, but I am worried that I'll set the house on fire before I get the joint hot enough. I also have a mini oxy-acetylene set, with #0, 1, and 2 nozzles. Could that do a better job? Or is oxy-acetylene simply too hot for soldering? Could I end up melting the pipes, even with a small flame? Thanks, Doug |
