Why did it melt?
I was trying to solder some silver (1mm I think) wire to itself in a simple
filigree type thing using hard solder. I followed all the instructions in my book yet the wire melted before the solder. I'm using a small butane hand torch, would that make a difference? If so, I'm going to have to give up my new hobby! Charlie. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
