Rich,
Since I don't know wot's available on your side I can only describe
what I use for "kitchen table" jobs which is a small torch fueled by MAPP
gas. This is a combination of liquified petroleum or propane gas with
methyl acetylene-propadiene and although the tank & torch appear to be
identical to a typical D.I.Y. propane torches the MAPP flame is somewhat
hotter and more concentrated. I have what might be considered a "pencil"
tip and it is very quiet but will when cranked up will easily silver solder
most any samll fitting or assembly.
Regards,
