Thanks Lloyd,

Will Sil-Flo work for two pieces of mild steel? If not can you recommend
an alloy composition?
Seems like most people are using silver solder for copper and brass or
bronze. I'm guessing the optimal alloys might be different for mild
steel though?



Yep -- with proper fluxing, it will work fine on SS, too. But it really
shines on copper and bronze. Pretty much any brazing rod will work on mild
steel, so long as you're not particular about thermal characteristics or
ultimate strength.
