Mike of Sheet Metal Workers Local 19 from ACG Roofing is soldering part of a box gutter with an Express iron. He is using a technique called stitching or bridging when you turn the heat of the iron down and lay a second bead of solder down. This is for aesthetics as well as strengthening the joint.

Should have stacked from the bottom up. That's way you ensure full sweat without pulling your solder out of the joint. Plus it only takes one pass. Do like your wand setup, but I would go with a narrower tip.

Yep! That's what you need. The amateurs can talk all they want while waiting for the real sheet metal worker to show up. Mike of Local 19 has the best stitching video on RU-vid! When in doubt, go find the Union man to get it done right! Way to go Mike! Bill, retired, Local 49

Double pass weakens the joint

Beautiful job just get your beads on the seem from bottom to top and I won’t have to go over it when it snaps this winter!

Whats the purpose of stitching? I'm assuming it adds strength.

I'm using the same soldier but it's hard to make it look flat and get to soldier to stay. What's the easiest way to work this type of machine for a beginner?

How come he didn't pop rivet it too?

What’s the weight of that bar you’re using?

Who uses cheap ass asphalt shingle with copper flashing? Not to mention, why isn’t there a piece of scrap near the solder joint to prevent hot solder from running onto the asphalt shingle. Just in case.

@danielmay8827 4 года назад

I noticed everyone uses those big square irons. Can you use a torch like they use when doing copper pipes?

@danielmay8827 4 года назад

@Denver Scott thanks for great information

Can you elaborate? Or do you have better videos you could point to? I'm trying to learn this stuff, and I always see critical comments, but I don't know what to make of them.
