i knocked off my feed neck today and re soldered it with silver solder, the solder AGD used needed a torch to melt

Yes. if it was welded you could not have melted it with torch.

hmmmmm

could this be acomplishd with mapp gas
or air/acetylene?
or is a propane torch enough heat?


is brazing 100% out of the question?
ive used braze to join steel in the past, didnt turn out too bad(not stainless)

[gotboostedvr6]

i would just silver solder it... if its not strong enough you can always grind and braze
