What type of torch setup do people use for silver soldering larger copper boilers?
 
Hi

For large boilers made from copper you will probably need an oxy acetylene torch. For smaller parts I use a mapp gas torch, sometimes two of them. A ceramic insulating blanket helps hold the heat in. On this page you will see the blanket in use. 1.75 Minnie traction Engine
