Someone recently wrote the above line in a post...just how does the cut out do this? If it fills up with brazing metal, it seems like the builder would be highly aggravated...it would have to be cleaned out. Tom Sanders Lansing, Mi USA
Tom,
Silver is very thin when it is flowing. Flows like water when everything is working like it should. It does not filet very much to fill a cut out. Also the filler only goes where the heat goes. Since the heat is moving, hopefully the filler is going with it. I was taught to add filler at one location on a lug and use torch to move the filler. I don't add filler in a cutout. The problem you describe is not much of a problem, even for a rookie like myself.
