The "water" refers to the placenta; when a pregnant woman's "water breaks", it is harvested and added to the mix, which is rolled out on the lily-white thighs of virgins who have never exposed their thighs to direct sunlight; hence the "white" in the name. Rosin, as you probably know, is a by-product of heating up resins from pine trees. Only the finest and hardiest pines, over 1000 years old, are used to source the resin used to produce the rosin in this solder. Add to that the elaborate ceremonies performed at each stage of production, and the careful timing to ensure that each step occurs at the astrologically optimal time, and at only 2-3 times the price of ordinary solder, it's a real bargain!Comment

Do a search, that's not out of line for what the stuff sells/sold for. Why, I don't know. Get it here and flip it. https://offerup.com/item/detail/223234302/Last edited by Mike V. Florida; 01-29-2018, 05:04 AM.Comment

I think I might try to silver solder some parts with worn areas like door dovetails. I did some silver soldering many years ago and still have some sticks of silver solder and some Stay Silv flux - see picture below. The flux has dried out and hard. Is there a method of returning the flux to a semi-liquid state somehow? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

A club member's starter quit working the other day, and it was easy to see why. Someone had worked on the field coils or starter contact, and did a poor solder job. They cut the starter field wire short of the contact slit, and left some of the old winding still soldered to the contact. They then tried to solder the windings to the short strap, but didn't use enough heat, which resulted in a cold...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

I was wondering if I were to fill some small holes on a steel part with solder and smooth out the area that was soldered, will nickel plating adhear to the solder?
Thanks.

Tip #1
When soldering SPLICED wires, hold the iron UNDER the wire & apply solder to the TOP!
Most common soldering problem is NOT enough HEAT !
Use ONLY Rosin Core Solder!---Acid Core Solder turns it GREEN!---GREEN is only for MONEY!

Yesterday our Model A club held it's annual swap meet at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. The rain cut back the sellers a bit, and the buyers were noticeably down from last year. The rain didn't start until about noon, so there was time to do some good shopping, and the very first thing I saw was a Power Products engine for only $10. I found an antique electric motor and a nice Wilton wood vice for...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

I thought someone was wanting one of these water bags recently.
Is Colorado a foreign country?
The bag says "Imported" and "Made in Colorado".
