    Hi - Don't I wish I could !!  No, I meant only that I frequently
    use enamels on fabricated pieces (like boxes or other
    hollowforms) and where solder is used prior to enamelling, it is
    supposed to be IT.  My first and only experience with tubing that
    had a solder seam was a seam that popped in the middle of the
    soldering operation, broke the tubing  and flew off the piece I
    was working on - I've been hesitant to use it ever since ! 

    Thank you for the reference on tube settings for enamelled
    pieces; it's something I've been meaning to try and haven't
    gotten to yet - one of my first tasks was to try and find a good
    text to look at.
