I DID do a search! But I really didn't find what I need to know, although I
suspect this is a common question.

I want to take a 1/2 inch square of brass, say .020 thick, and solder it to
the end of a 1/8 inch brass rod. (The plane of the square piece is
perpendicular to the axis of the rod.) Would you be so kind as to recommend
solder and flux? I would like to get a small tip and use my oxy-acetylene
torch. Does that sound right? Recommendations welcome.

Appearance doesn't matter. Much thanks.
