@quixoticgeek Too far away for me to show you, sorry. How about starting with something small like a couple of wires?
@BogLoper I can solder electronics just fine. Right down to BGA surface mount. Pipework on the other hand is new to me, I normally just use compression fittings, but the fitting in need isn't easily available as a compression fitting. So solder it is. Can't be too hard. Have purchased some fittings to practice with. Feel like it's a useful skill every girl should know anyhow.
@quixoticgeek Sure is. Everyone should be able to solder - and weld. Plastering is another useful skill.
@BogLoper My mum taught me the important skills, brick laying and woodwork... Welding is on the list, as is general smithing. I can also sew, cook, and I built my bike.
@quixoticgeek Wow! I've rebuilt motorbikes, cars and we built a stock car, many moons ago, and raced it for three seasons
