I have several 3/8" brass rods and I want to braze them together to make a square after I cut and fit the ends together for a tight fit and this would be for look only and not for anything structual. Can I use a small brass rod like a 1/16" inch to braze them with Mapp gas or do I need to buy a specific brazing rod from the welding supply shop and can I use Mapp gas or do I have to have more heat? I also read that I can use silver solder but I really wanted to stay with all brass so I can polish it up. if I had to use silver solder, is there a specific type I need and do I use flux just like normal soldering. Any help with all my questions would be appreciated or a link to this subject would be appreciated also. Thanks, Mike
