    Damn! You Orchidians sure know alot. I thank you for all for the on
    and off line responses. I quess I kind of posed a trick question. i
    explained that i was not in My shop with the oxy-propane. I was in my
    girlfriends shop with the old acetylene B bottle. She is a
    silversmith. So i was sizing a ring for someone and used the lover
    temp solder. i guess the majic bullet was to burnish the hell out of
    it and stay away from a buffing wheel. So.......the next time I am
    far from my beloved Oxy-propane I will go to the home depot and get a
    baby oxy and a baby propane bottle, hook it up to a mini torch,
    strap a tank under each arm and hold the torch between my legs as I
    fuse a piece of the same material into the seam. i will then scream
    "I AM IRON... (that should read dork) Did you see the Movie yet? not
    bad...one hell of a metalsmithing project. 

    I would like to officialy put this thread to rest. i will send out
    the crab cake recipe to those who replied, off line. 

    *any one going to Vegas? I will be doing Demos for Foredom at the
    Kassoy tool booth. stop by and heckel me please.
