In the far past, I have done some silver-soldering, but I am 50 years out of practice and don't want to mess up a costly project, mine or someone else's. I also don't have the tools to hold a sight band in place (so it doesn't slip when the solder starts to run). Brownell's does sell such a tool, but really, I have a cabinet full of jigs, fixtures, and specialty tools that were used once or twice and never touched again.
