I started a plumbing project and changed my mind mid-project. Is it
safe to reheat a joint and turn an elbow 180 degrees? By safe, I mean,
will the solder continue to provide a sound, leak-proof joint?


Yes. If it was done right you have enough solder and it is not exposed to
air so it will not oxidize either. Take care not to overheat the joint.
