Video Request – Soldering Fine Chains without Melting 2

July 7th, 2011

		Part Two of Two A recent email from an At The Bench member prompted Andrew to make this two part film. It does not matter what size torch you have, it’s how you control the flame that matters.

Not so bad if the chain is yours but could be a disaster if you were repairing the chain for a client. With the aid of some home made solutions Andrew shows you how not to melt the chain and how to keep the cleaning up to a minimum.
