Default Flux for lead soldering

Scrape the oxide off before starting. Multicore should work, as would the
plumbers solder and plumbers flux paste. I wouldn't use offcuts though as

you
would be welding rather than soldering! Plumbers solder will be "lead

free" so
have a higher melting point than multicore.


Best to use low melting point Grade D solder. Available from some of the
sheds and plumbers merchants.
