Gaylen,

    I use a Nr 5 tip on my 'Little Torch" with propane and oxy for just
    about everything!  Do all my gold work with it, even large silver
    bezels and sweat jobs right down to chain repair.  I think its really
    what you get used to. I use a large round head with multiple orifaces
    for casting (when I cast...not doing much anymore) but otherwise, its
    just the Nr 5.  By all means, I use Pripp's flux just about all the
    time too. It is not the final answer but it really helps I think. 

    Good luck with your soldering. Cheers from Don at The Charles Belle
    Studio in SOFL where simple elegance IS fine jewelry!
