    Awesome intro. I am trying to learn how to solder copper, so that I can make a copper still. I have a vineyard and I am already growing wine grapes and make wine. This video is extremely helpful.

    Good lesson. I learned a lot, but what if you find a gap and have a leak. How do you correct it?

    Nothing said about end caps - a special application "fitting"... Don't use too much solder is rather nebulous, might might solder "line" every 1/2 inch and see how much you use so one might have a better way of gauging this. Nothing on, you did it and turned on the water and it drips. How to correct the leaking joint / splice /or cap. A bit more practical than three pieces in a clamp stand... Thanks ...
