I need to attach many many 5/16 brass threaded studs to 3/8 x 3/16 brass ba rs. There is an angle involved. I started out using jeweler's silver solder . It was plenty strong, but the fire scale on the threads was a huge headac he, not to mention positioning. Now I turn down the end of the stud to 0.2 and press fit into a hole in the bar (which has a machined chamfer), and pi n it. This holds well, but is a lot of work. Resistance soldering seems wor th investigating, but most of the info I find on the web seems geared towar d electrical and plumbing applications, not to mention the units are quite expensive. Is there a way to kludge together a system which will handle har d solder? Thanks!
