Rick,
The Sta-Brite silver solder kit that Tower Hobbies et al. has carried is the
one I've used. I use a 40 watt iron or 100 watt soldering gun.

I appreciate this.  In the past I have used regular lead and tin solder
after having used an acid flux.  It works well enough I guess (never had
one fail) but it always took considerable effort to get any kind of a
decent looking joint and then I never was happy with it.  This was for a
stainless push rod to a mild steel push rod at the clevis.

Silver solder that I am aware of requires a torch.  Will the kit you are
talking about here work with a soldering iron?  And is there a special kit
for the work we are talking about?

Thanks, and sorry for the ignorant questions.
