And here was me thinking only way to sweat copper pipes was to drink a pint or two of molten copper and go for a long jog.

It is a poor way to clean joint, Get a damp rag or cloth whichever, heat joint and wipe and you'll see, if you had done this after making the joint, then there would be no need for the extra work, Just try what I mean,
from a union pipefitter, Also you got a little water?? stuff the pipe with bread, a 1/2 slice is about enough for 3/4" pipe, Give it a try, Only thing to lose is a couple minutes, but you gain some good exp,
and its always ... ( 2 months ago by pk2tuff)
and its always smart having a lighter next to the joint u r welding, who cares if it blows up in ur face
Do not do this..... ... ( 1 month ago by debaucheryBotched)
Do not do this.........you're bound to flush most of the solder out of the joint, overheat the joint making it soft and weak, and never use water on a hot joint as it doesn't allow the solder time to re-solidify strong. Use a dry rag and flame, sparingly. Above all, NEVER attempt to dissasemble & refit old joints as you will not be able to clean & prep the joint as new and it will be unreliable..... new fittings are cheap. Remeber, a water system is only as strong as its weakest joint
Yeah, copper is fun ... ( 1 month ago by debaucheryBotched)
Yeah, copper is fun to work with.... but basement floods are a bitch.....BEWARE, if you choose to follow this advice
So if you all ... ( 1 month ago by rgk6u)
So if you all disagree? why is this then rated with 4 stars? I'll try to down it a littlebit, untill the Mr Sweat comes clean with some proof his method doesn't affect pipe performance (leakages, less pressure etc.)
As pointed out ... ( 1 month ago by plumberdoc2)
As pointed out below this guy is a REAL hack. If you follow his poor instructions you will have a high percentage of failed or going to fail shortly joints. Check out other how to sweat copper videos on You Tube (like Tony the plumbers video).
