Silver soldering BS blades or Carbide?
#6
Steve,

I think most carbide inserts are furnace brazed, so flux isn't required. I have used silver solder ribbon before with a torch and it works pretty well, but wire solder works well too. It's just a little tougher to keep the solder precisely where you want it.

I have been soldering my band saw blades lately as well with success. I have a basic fixture for aligning it and plan on doing a little re-design to make it more user (me) friendly. I still need to come up with a fixture to taper the ends, I'm just eyeballing it now.
