If you have a torch and can gas weld do it. Start with CLEAN joints. No messy flux or clean up. Just tack it well. Using the copper plate will help to.
And Boraxo makes good flux. :)

Clean joints? You're supposed to clean the metal first? Now you tell me. :BH:

I don't know about the no messy clean up though. I always use the pointy hammer for cleaning up afterwards. :lol:
(Or at least a ball peen hammer.)
