Otto Frei has put together a soldering kit that contains all the basic items you will need to begin to solder including a simple torch. This kit contains everything you need (except the gas-you'll have to get that locally) to start hard soldering including a simple torch and some wire silver solder. With this kit, you'll be ready to begin hard soldering, as we call it in the jewelry industry. Hard soldering is referred to as brazing in other industries, and is different from low temperature soldering (called soft soldering) that is done with soldering irons and low temperature solders like tin or lead solders. Hard soldering is done with a torch at temperatures starting at approximately 1500 F, and with suitable solder materials like silver solders or gold solders. This starter kit contains almost the exact same items in our professional soldering kit, except in smaller quantities. To lower the price even more we substituted a less expensive pickle pot. This kit contains the simple Blazer Torch, a basic torch that runs on butane (with the blazer torch you can start to learn how to hard solder small jobs like jump rings and simple jewelry repairsonce you have mastered beginning soldering, you will want to move up to a bigger torch). You can find containers of butane at most hardware and drug stores. It the same fuel that refillable lighters use. Kit includes: 114.210 Micro Torch116.259 Synthetic Sable Flux Brush Brushes- Size 2/0143.638 Binding Wire145.140 Pickle/Otto Tech 1-1/2 lb (Makes 1/2 Gallon)145.300 Pickler-20oz, 110v148.230 Tweezers-Inside Ring Holding-Soldering148.236 Tweezers-Slide Locking Solitaire Holding154.080 Soldering- Third Hand With Tweezers154.178 Standard Charcoal Block154.208 Silquar Soldering Board 6" x 12"154.396 Firescoff 1 oz.154.402 Soldering Flux - Batterns-3 oz Jar154.440 Ottoflux Paste Flux 1-1/2 oz154.462 Tix Anti-Flux 1/2 oz.154.468 Kool-Jool In 8 oz Jar154.772 Solder Pick, Tungsten with Wood Handle157.054 Tongs-Copper 8-1/2 Inch Fishtail Ends157.0758 Tweezers OO157.760 Tweezer-Crosslock w/Grip Straight 6.25" (160mm) for Soldering162.512 Soldering Made Simple by Joe Silvera804-401 Silver Wire Solder
