There is a slight chance that someone on here at some time might have picked up a torch and soldered silver to make a pretty adornment for self or loved ones...or even for commerce? Is there anyone out there in dawgland, or do I once again stand alone in my sea of loneliness? |

I've worked with solder that contained silver... something like 2-5%... probably really doesn't count...
but if you want to keep something on a circuit board, or keep to wires together... |
