Noidea, thanks for the tips.  The work was done on the footpath in crap light as the sun set, by two guys with a small bottle of mapp gas and a pair of pliers ???  Trying to find people over here who are good at their trade (or even properly qualified & experienced) is a bit of a struggle. Which gas / brazing rod / flux would be best suited for these type of jobs?  I'd like to buy a small set of gear and have a go at learning / practicing how to braze.  I've still got plenty of copper tube and some spare fittings lying around..

Me too!!  I do most of my own plumbing repairs then pay for a signature and a double check.... If inside.  All advice is greatly appreciated.

Borat ha ha I can picture the scenario in my head now, sounds like something I've seen in a few countries I've visited. The MAPP gas probably didn't help the neatness of the job much. Handy if you're in/on a roof somewhere but not really a focussed heat source. I'll put some words down on brazing for you guys but trying to stay away from typing a lot at the moment due to some neck issues, so please be patient.

I have both propane and Oxy kits here at home.  It's the capillary action I'm never sure about when joining. What's the test other than time

I've since found some good instructional videos on YouTube, but still wondering which gas / brazing rod type etc I should get.
